Pop-up outdoor cinemas are nothing new. From screens under flyovers and London’s Secret Cinema to others that hunker down for a night at canal-side car parks, the trend for one-off film screenings has been chuntering on, cinematically-speaking, for a fair while. Here’s our pick of the best outdoor cinema in the North – pack popcorn, a torch and someone to grab during the scary bits.
Here are our picks
-
1. Tatton Park
Tatton Park, Knutsford, Cheshire, WA16 6QN - Visit now
Occupying over 1,000 acres of land in Cheshire, the Tatton Park estate could more properly be called a pleasure garden. Much like the outdoor spaces used for entertainment that were popular in the 18th century, Tatton offers a range of diversions across its vast grounds – including a wide range of screenings over the summer.
