A whole host of immersive drive-in entertainment events set to return to Greater Manchester next month.

Cinemas and entertainment complexes right across the region may currently still be closed amid the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, but with an “irreversible” roadmap for lifting England’s third national lockdown now in place, reopening is on the horizon.

If you’re far too eager to wait until mid-May though, Park N Party – the team that delivered both the sell-out successes of ScareCity and ChristmasCity, and a number of other outdoor live events throughout 2020 – comes SecretCity.

Manchester’s newest event space is back and it’s better than ever.

Rolling into Event City in Trafford on 15th April and set to run throughout the summer, SecretCity is giving film fans the chance to catch their favourite drive-in cinema classics and new releases on the UK’s biggest LED outdoor screen, alongside immersive entertainment, live actors, vibrant props, food and drink, and many more surprises.

With entertainment ready from the moment you enter the park and walk through the enchanted tunnel, guests are invited to “tumble down the rabbit hole into a new world”.

There’ll also be plenty of unique photo opportunities.

With food available and a bar on site, there’ll be everything you need for a summer like no other.
