A pop-up cinema experience will be returning to an enormous cave just outside Greater Manchester this November. 

The Village Screen will be pitching up inside the famous Peak Cavern once again with a giant 21ft screen, atmospheric lighting and top-range sound. 

The popular event has planned a return to the Peak District for one last time in 2022, where it will be screening films including those from the Harry Potter franchise and classics like The Lost Boys. 

As well as the cinema screenings themselves, the events include live music, themed actors, decor and independent street food. 

You can also expect themed drinks, beers, prosecco and popcorn, with at-seat delivery available. 

There are snuggle packages available to keep you cosy throughout the film, and you can even send a message to be displayed on the big screen. 

The Village Screen are the independent event production team behind pop-up cinemas in locations including Victoria Baths, Hathersage lido, and the top of a car park in Sheffield. 

With seven years of pop-up events under their belts, they’ve grown a small team of experts who work tirelessly to deliver an unforgettable cinematic experience.
