Wessex Cancer Trust’s drive-in cinema is heading to Sandown Airport this summer, with 8 epic blockbusters being screened over 2 days.
The charity has secured the support of headline sponsors Hose Rhodes Dickson, Novum Law, Fidelity International, ICRTouch and Find Us On Web to host the event at the airport on 5th & 6th June.
The films to be screened on the Saturday are Jurassic Park, The Greatest Showman, Dirty Dancing and Bridesmaids. On Sunday, The Lion King (2019), Mamma Mia, Grease and The Hangover will be shown on a giant LED screen, with the soundtrack played through each car radio.
Regional Fundraiser Laura Joyce said:
“Our Christmas drive-in was such a huge success, so we were really keen to run it again. We had some amazing feedback and so many requests for summer screenings, so we delivered!
“Tickets for the Christmas event were snapped up so quickly – and we’re expecting the same this time around – so make sure you get booked in early.
“2021 is an extra special year for Wessex as it’s our 40th birthday so please come along, show your support and help us celebrate in style!”
The event will take place with COVID-19 restrictions and social-distancing rules in place. Tickets for each screening are limited and are available at www.wessexcancer.org.uk/event/drive-in-cinema-2021.
All money raised will help Wessex Cancer Trust support Islanders affected by cancer.
Will need to leave the engine running then, thats a flat battery waitng to happen
Its not your car radio it’s a separate supply that you clip onto your car window. No flat battery chance. Having been to other ‘drive in movies’ it’s a great experience. You set your own volume and you are in your car from arrival and departure.
