Cinéma Comoedia

What Cinéma Comoedia does

Cinéma Comoedia is an independent, single-location art-house cinema located at 13 avenue Berthelot in Lyon's 7th arrondissement, France. Operated under the legal entity S.A.S PLEIN CHAMP, the cinema screens films across 9 climate-controlled rooms with seating capacities ranging from 47 to 292 places. Its programming is differentiated by curated retrospectives (notably Jacques Tati), independent and festival selections (including ACID Cannes reprises), children's programming (Little Films Festival, Ma T'Août Première), and classic film festivals ('Plein Soleil sur les Classiques'). The cinema also operates an on-site Bistrot du Comœdia serving local artisan food and beverage, a private event rental business, and a branded merchandise line (tote bags, mugs, notebooks, keyrings) priced €10–25.

The technology stack is conventional cinema operations: digital projection with 3D capability, an electronic ticketing system supporting seat reservation and Apple/Google/Samsung Wallet e-ticket delivery via a web platform (achat.cinema-comoedia.com) operated by technology partner CINE GROUP, and native iOS and Android mobile applications. The site runs on Netlify-hosted infrastructure with cookie-consent management provided by Didomi.

Revenue is generated through multiple streams: unit-priced ticket sales (standard adult ~€8.00 with reduced rates from €5.50 for seniors/Carte Culture holders and morning screenings), prepaid subscription cards (CARTE ABO 6 Places at €45), bulk corporate vouchers (CE booklets of 25 checks valid for one year), on-site F&B and confectionery, branded merchandise, and private venue rental handled under contact Frédérique Duperret. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer through physical box office, web, mobile apps, and B2B corporate voucher programs; the cinema also accepts GrAC network vouchers. Customer segments span individual cinema-goers (primary), students (10% Bistrot discount), corporate/committee buyers, and schools, with no publicly disclosed dependency on any single segment or partner.
