The Binks Yard Film Club is back for a second season, bringing more outdoor cinema nights to Nottingham following the success of its launch earlier this year.
The new phase introduces a fresh line-up of film favourites, shown on the venue’s 7 x 3.35 metre outdoor screen, the largest in the East Midlands. Following a successful first phase that welcomed 1,850 attendees, the next run of Film Club screenings will take place on Wednesday evenings and feature titles such as Romeo + Juliet, The Bodyguard and Pretty Woman.
Arpita Anstey, marketing director at The Island Quarter, said: “We had an amazing response to the launch of Film Club earlier this year. Guests loved the atmosphere and the chance to enjoy their favourite films outside with great food and drinks. We’re really excited to be back with more screenings and new experiences.”
One of the highlights of the new season is a special singalong screening of Mamma Mia, where guests are encouraged to join in with the film’s iconic soundtrack. Building on the popularity of last year’s terrace screening, the singalong will bring a party atmosphere to the plaza with plenty of dancing and singing expected.
Each Film Club screening is ticketed, with entry starting at £5. Doors open at 6pm for all screenings and begins at 7pm, so guests are encouraged to arrive early to enjoy food, drinks and secure a good spot. Seating is available for all ticket holders, but places are allocated on a first come, first served basis.
Guests can make an evening of it by dining indoors before the screening with choices such as including wood-fired pizzas, burgers, steaks, shawarmas and small plates or choosing from a range of outdoor food and drink options, including Binks BBQ, poke bowls and loaded fries. A fully stocked outdoor bar and food stalls will also be available throughout the season.
Arpita added: “The response so far has shown there’s real momentum for something different in the city. Whether you’re planning a date night or looking for school holiday inspiration, Film Club offers a unique experience that brings people together.”
