Who else feels like they haven’t been to the cinema in, like forever? After closing their doors on 17 March in the wake of the pandemic, many cinemas are now offering safe outdoor or drive-thru screenings. Here are the 5 best outdoor cinema experiences in the UK…
Rooftop Film Club
Outdoor cinema at Alexandra Palace, London
Alexandra Palace have reimagined their approach to ensure guests have a safe “away from home” experience, from the security of their own cars. In the age of social distancing, they ask that you remain in your vehicle for the duration of the film, aside from using the loos. The movie will be projected onto a 40-foot screen. Movie audio will be broadcast through the FM transmitter radio in your vehicle. You are welcome to bring your own food, but they will be offering food and beverages through a completely contactless system which will be delivered to your car door. Screenings to include ET, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Fight Club, Up! and more…
