About

Join us for an outdoor cinema screening of the fantastic newly released blockbuster 'The Color Purple', presented by Cinestock UK, the Southeast's largest Open-Air Cinema organisers.

The evening will be based in the Gun Garden, with views of the glowing Castle in the evening sunset, and with a delightful selection of food and beverages, including cocktails and classic cinema snacks on sale.

A decades-spanning tale of love and resilience and of one woman's journey to independence

In early 20th-century rural Georgia, an African-American woman endures and overcomes severe hardships, discovering her own strength and self-worth. Through letters and relationships with other women, she finds her voice and pursues a life of independence and fulfilment.

Before each screening, enjoy live music performances as the sun sets, setting the stage for the cinematic experience.

This is an outdoor screening, so please dress for the weather! You can take any hard work out of your evening by renting one of Cinestock's Luxury high back padded chairs, complete with a pillow and blanket, but act fast as they tend to sell out quickly.
