Amelia Dimoldenberg’s final Chicken Shop Date series is scheduled to screen in cinemas on November 24, 2026, in a one-night event that will give audiences an early look at its unreleased last episode, The Hollywood Reporter reported. The episode is due on YouTube on November 27, three days after the public screenings.

The cinema presentation, arranged with YouTube’s Cine Club, brings the final series together with new material made for the larger screen, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Variety reported that all six episodes will be shown as one programme, ending with the finale. That makes the cinema event a chance to watch the completed series together before its final episode appears online.

Where the final series is set to screen

Variety reported that the November 24 screenings are planned for the UK, Ireland and Paris. Its listed venues include Duke of York’s Picturehouse in Brighton, Picturehouse Central and Curzon Soho in London, mk2 Bibliothèque in Paris, Vue Manchester Printworks and Vue Dublin Liffey Valley. It also listed Vue cinemas in Edinburgh, Bristol and Birmingham, as well as London Westfield.

An invite-only premiere is planned in London on November 16, ahead of the public screenings, according to both outlets. Variety also reported plans for a New York premiere and question-and-answer appearances by Dimoldenberg. The two reports give different dates for that New York event.

How Chicken Shop Date reached its finale

Dimoldenberg said last month that Chicken Shop Date would end, Variety reported. In the social media post quoted by the outlet, she wrote: ‘I never thought I’d stop “Chicken Shop Date,” I thought maybe it would be a part of me forever, and in some way it always will, but I feel like it’s now time to move on from this adventure and onto a new one.’

The Hollywood Reporter said Dimoldenberg began Chicken Shop Date as a column at 17 before launching the filmed series on YouTube in 2014. Its interview format places guests opposite her in chicken shops. Variety named Noel Gallagher, Role Model and Jorja Smith among the guests already featured in the final series; the planned cinema programme will bring those episodes and the concluding interview into a single screening.
