During the long winter lockdown, the idea of being among friends to enjoy a film on a summer evening, sipping drinks in the intimate surroundings of a stunning UK location was the stuff of dreams.
Now, The Luna Cinema, in partnership with American Express, is coming back to make those dreams a reality with a summer programme that promises to be its best yet – with over 175 screenings at more than 50 stunning locations, Londoners can experience the magic of cinema under the stars at three venues including Hampton Court Palace, Kenwood House and Clapham Common, which is a brand new London venue for 2021.
The screenings list in London on the weekend of 24th July is just the ticket to banish the lockdown cobwebs and mark a return to feel good fun, with screenings including Top Gun, Dirty Dancing, Bohemian Rhapsody, Joker, Pretty Woman, Knives Out and The Greatest Showman.
The season runs from 29th June until 3rd October and tickets are available to buy from thelunacinema.com – prices start from £15.50 including booking fees. Audiences can choose to upgrade their general admission ticket with an optional seated upgrade ticket to include use of a Luna director’s chair, or for the ultimate VIP experience guests can opt for the Luna Luxe ticket, which offers two people the chance to watch the film from luxury sofa seating with blankets, heaters, a sharing hamper of food, a bottle of bubbles and a mini cup of luxury ice cream Häagen-Dazs, to complete the cinematic experience.
The Luna Bar with Moretti will be present at all screenings serving a full selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, as well as the famous Italian beer itself of course; and there will be delicious hot food available at all screenings. Audiences are also welcome to dig out their hampers and pack a picnic (though the bringing of alcohol to the events is restricted). Both food and drink at Luna’s screenings will be available to order using a handy “click and collect” service to avoid time spent queuing.
