Draken is the heart of the Göteborg Film Festival. Between January 23 and February 1, more than 30 films will be shown here – including the opening and closing films and the Nordic Competition – and all of them are included in your Cineville card!
At Draken, with 699 seats, you will find the biggest premieres and the festival’s box office. In addition, the cinema is located directly next to Hotel Draken, where evening programs are held throughout the festival.
The magnificent hall has a vaulted ceiling with walls completely covered in mahogany. In front of the large screen hangs the beautiful curtain with its stylized dragon ship, designed by Gunnar Erik Ström.
Opening hours:
The festival box office at Draken opens at the start of the festival.
January 23 12:00 – 21:00

Accessibility:
Cinema Draken is accessible by elevator via Hotel Draken and has a large restroom and wheelchair spaces. Wheelchair spaces need to be booked in advance, while you also arrange for help from the staff when you go in (apart from that, there is free seating). If you have only a slight difficulty walking, you can take the elevator up and walk a few steps up to the hall. There is no hearing loop and none of the shows are audio-interpreted.
