Outdoor Cinema Bath

What is Outdoor Cinema Bath?

Experience the Magic of Outdoor Cinema Bath

Outdoor Cinema Bath is held at Bath Racecourse on Lansdown, high above the city. Park in the parking area at the front of the racecourse, walk through the main gates and turn left down to the screen (this is about a 6-7 min walk). It's easy to reach from Bath, Bristol, Keynsham and Chippenham.

On Saturday 24th October we're screening Hocus Pocus and The Lost Boys at the racecourse. Bring your picnic and blankets and come dressed up – we’ll email you firm catering details before the event.

Tickets are secured with a £5 deposit on Eventbrite, with the rest paid on the door. Parking and toilets (including disabled toilets) are on site and under 3s go free.

About Bath Racecourse

Bath Racecourse sits high on Lansdown above the city and is one of the highest flat racecourses in Britain. On a clear night the views are wonderful – and the big, open racecourse is perfect for an outdoor cinema.

Accessibility

The screen is on grass, so the ground can be uneven, especially after rain. Toilets, including disabled toilets, are on site. If you need a carer ticket or any other support, email us at info@openairfilm.co.uk before the event and we’ll help.

What to bring

Camping chairs or blankets (there’s no seating at Halloween), warm layers and a hot water bottle, a torch for the walk back to the car and sensible shoes for the grass. You’re welcome to bring your own picnic and drinks, including alcohol – please drink responsibly and leave the glass at home. No BBQs.

Tickets and prices

Adult £15, child £10, family (2 adults, 2 children) £35. Secure your place with a £5 deposit per ticket on Eventbrite and pay the rest on the door. Under 3s go free. Tickets are e-tickets on your phone – lost yours? We have a master list at the gate.

Weather and refunds

In most weather the show goes on, so wrap up and bring a poncho just in case. Refunds are available up to two weeks before the event, and if heavy rain or high winds mean we cancel or postpone, you’ll get a full refund. We post live updates on our Facebook page.
