Adventure Cinema, the UK’s largest touring outdoor cinema, has announced it will be heading to Poole this summer.

The tour, launching in April, will tour across the UK in 2023, showing films such as Top Gun: Maverick, Elvis, Mamma Mia! and The Greatest Showman.

These screenings give people the chance to watch cinema in the open air and under the stars in places like National Trust sites, medieval castles or country estates.

Ben Lovell, Co-Director, of Adventure Cinema, said: “We are delighted to announce that 2023s tour will be our biggest yet!

"This season’s selection of films feature something for everyone, from award-winning new releases to old school classics and films for the whole family - and is perfect for those who love the cinema and the great outdoors.

"We can’t wait to bring everyone together once again for some unforgettable cinema experiences.”
