Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". The Royal Film Performance is a trademarked event owned by The Film and Television Charity,[1] formerly known as the Cinema & Television Benevolent Fund CTBF (from 1964 to 2017) and previously the Cinematograph Trade Benevolent Fund (from its inception in 1924).[2] The event showcases a major film premiere and is attended by members of the British Royal Family. The proceeds from the event help the charity to offer financial support to people from the film, TV and cinema industries.

The event began in 1946, as the Royal Command Film Performance, with a screening of A Matter of Life and Death. The charity first received Royal Patronage in 1936, and so the idea of a Royal screening was born. The original date of the first event was 18 October 1939 and it was to be called the Royal Cine-Variety Performance, but it was postponed due to the outbreak of World War II.

The "Royal Command" name was changed from 1949, to Royal Film Performance, on the basis that the choice of film was that of the CTBF rather than the Royal Family.[3] There was no performance between 2015 and 2019 while the CTBF was reformed as The Film and Television Charity.[4] There was no event in 2020 or 2021 due to the global COVID-19 pandemic.

The most recent Royal Film Performance was the global premiere of Ridley Scott's Gladiator II at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square on 13 November 2024. The event was attended by His Majesty King Charles III. Queen Camilla planned to attend with the King but ultimately cancelled due to a chest infection.
