Star?
WHAT’S ON AT
The Star employs five part-time staff, is run by a Committee of
Management, and has an extensive volunteer base.
Star Cinema enjoys the patronage of our country cinema goers from
as far afield as Swan Hill, and is an attraction for cinema enthusiasts
from Melbourne.
With its unique service to visitors to Bendigo, the Star is also a hit with
our Tourism industry.
The Star Community Cinema
offers a distinctive entertainment
and cultural experience to people
from Bendigo and beyond.
Established in 1999, the Cinema
has operated as a community
enterprise since 2005.
In this time, it has become a
much-loved cultural icon.
It has established a strong
customer base that continues
to grow.
The Star is well-placed to continue to expand and provide a special
cultural experience in this region.
Star screenings:
•
Are 6 days a week
•
Offer 720 screenings over the year
•
Attract over 16,000 audience
members per year
Last year, 80 community groups held
fundraising events at the Star

Each month the program provides a diverse range of
screenings so that there is something for everyone with
an interest in cinema.
Forthcoming initiatives include ‘Toddler Time’ and
corporate social event opportunities.
how we promote
So, how do people find out about the Star?
We have a mailing list of 750 supporters who receive the program each month
via email. In addition, 3,500 full-color printed copies are distributed throughout
Bendigo – some via a mailing list and others through a network of local
businesses that make the program available to customers.
Through the support of local businesses our monthly programs have a wide
distribution throughout the Greater Bendigo community.
Weekly media coverage, in the Bendigo Advertiser and ABC Radio provides
updated information about the Star’s program and special events.
Our website is a focal point, and includes all our program and event information. The site receives over 4,000 hits a month.
We are innovative users of social media including Facebook and twitter.
In addition, our Committee of Management, staff, volunteers and other supporters have extensive networks where they
spread the word about the Star – and we all know that word of mouth is the most effective marketing tool of all.
UP TO 16,000 GOOD
Reasons
Being a community cinema, the Star has the flexibility to modify its
programming or customise events according to how to best meet the
needs of our customers, sponsors and community. As a sponsor, you
can join us in this exciting journey.
The Star’s audience is growing, as
demonstrated through increasing attendance.
Market research indicates that our customers
are mostly educated professionals from the
greater Bendigo area, aged over 35 years old.
However, other demographics, such as tourists
and university students, are increasingly
enjoying the Star.
