What is Public Performance Licensing?
The screening of a film outside of a cinema or the home is regarded as a
non-theatrical Public Performance screening.
Any person or organisation wishing to screen a film in public must get
permission from the copyright owner and pay a licence fee. A copyright owner whose rights are infringed may seek orders from a court, including financial compensation.
Roadshow Public Performance Licensing (Roadshow PPL) is your link to the
copyright owners of thousands of movie titles. Roadshow PPL

movie studios and
industry groups, and makes licensing options available to you for screening
films in public.
