Fortunately, the rooms are very comfortable and rather elegant. Every week, more than films are offered, and there are usually for all tastes. As for the price of entries, they are unfortunately available (the cinema can afford it, as it has the monopoly over the chartraine agglomeration), but know that if you are amateurs of fast food you can benefit from various discounts in the restaurants Mc Donald's Chartres, thanks to your movie tickets. They also guarantee 50% discount to the Q-Park underground car park (Saint-Michel), within a maximum of 2 hours.

Y'A D'LA JOIE, CAFÉ PHILO

Open and especially accessible to the general public, these philosophical, literary or artistic meetings are true meetings-dialogues on a given theme.

At the end of each session, everyone can propose and vote on the theme of the next meeting. Association Y'of a joy thus embodies philosophy in the participatory approach which is its raison d'être, and gives life to these reflections, outside the ranks of the school.
