Cinema under the stars at Boughton House Film / Cinema

Boughton House is gearing up two musical cinematic experiences this August during its alfresco summer season.

Up first is the smash hit comedy musical Pitch Perfect on Friday 11 August, followed by the Oscar-winning La La Land on Saturday 12 August.
Taking place during the annual opening of the Estate’s House and Gardens in August, the screenings are joined by an open air theatre performance of The Wind in the Willows by Chapterhouse Theatre Company on Tuesday 15 August. The House is also hosting a special gardening exhibition “Vistas of Vast Extension”, open to House and Gardens ticket holders throughout August.
Closing out the season are screenings of the hugely popular live-action retelling of Beauty and the Beast on Friday 8 September and feel-good favourite Mamma Mia on Saturday 9 September.
Charles Lister, Property Manager at Boughton House, said: “Boughton’s sprawling grounds provide an idyllic setting for outdoor events and this year our focus is really on the great outdoors. With exhibitions, screenings and live performances coming up, it’s a summer season like never before.
“Our cinematic offering is sure to be a hit with movie-goers, and we encourage you to make yourself comfortable, bring along a picnic and enjoy some of the best-loved musicals under the stars in this spectacular setting.”
Tickets for the screenings are now available at www.lunaflix.co.uk from £13 for adults and £9 for children.
