Isle Of Wight's Charity Drive-In Cinema Is Back - At New Location

The Isle of Wight's popular drive-in cinema is returning later this year - at a new location.

And organisers are asking for Islanders' input as to what they should show.

The event, which raises money for Wessex Cancer Trust, proved a hit at Christmas. Around 2,500 people turned out at Robin Hill to watch their festive favourites.

This year it will be held in the summer at the new location of Sandown Airport. 

Lorraine White, Wessex Cancer Trust's Regional Fundraiser, said:

"We are really excited to be bringing our Drive-In Cinema back and this time for the summer! We'll be playing your favourite films on a giant LED screen at the new summer location of Sandown Airport EGHN on Saturday 5th & Sunday 6th June."

A few suggestions of what could be shown are family favourites: Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Mary Poppins Returns, Shrek, Beauty and the Beast (2017), ET and The Lion King (2019).

Suggestions for other, more adult appropriate films for the evening, include: Grease, Mamma Mia, Notting Hill, The Greatest Showman, Bridesmaids, Dirty Dancing, Slumdog Millionaire, James Bond, The Hangover, Something about Mary.

Tickets will be available soon.
