An outdoor pop-up cinema and new monthly Sunday artisan market will be coming to a Warwickshire hotel in May.
Adventure Cinema will be screening three classic films Dirty Dancing, Grease Sing-a-Long and The Rocky Horror Picture Show in the picturesque grounds of Coombe Abbey Hotel, just outside Coventry, from May 27 to 29.
Limited tickets will be available for the open-air cinema. Guests are invited to bring along a blanket or camping chair to watch three classic films over three evenings with gates opening at 8.15pm and films starting at 9.45pm.
The weekend cinema under the stars starts on Friday May 27 with a showing of Dirty Dancing (12) starring Jennifer Grey as Frances "Baby" Houseman, who has the time of her life while on holiday in 1963 with her family at a resort in New York's Catskill Mountains.
It will be followed on Saturday May 28 by retro classic Grease (PG), the original high school musical, and rounded off with cult classic Rocky Horror on Sunday May 29.
Coombe Abbey Artisan Market is launching on Sunday May 8 and will take place on the second Sunday of the month between 10am and 4pm throughout the year ending December 11. It will include a wide variety of stalls selling local produce, arts and crafts.
Ron Terry, Operations Director of No Ordinary Hospitality Management, the company which operates Coombe Abbey Hotel, said: “We are delighted to be bringing the big screen experience to Coombe Abbey for all film fans to enjoy this summer.
“We’re keeping our fingers crossed for a nice dry weekend and look forward to seeing everyone there and enjoying these wonderful classics.
“The new monthly market every second Sunday of the month will host a range of great local suppliers and we hope it will be of interest to guests and local residents heading to the park for walks and leisure time over the weekend.”
Visitors are welcome to bring along picnics for the film screenings, but no alcohol due to licensing regulations. There will be a bar set-up serving a selection of drinks and cinema snacks.
Tickets for Adventure Cinema start at £9.50 for under 12s and a standard ticket is £14.50 with VIP options available.
