Dominic Davies Founder of Backyard Cinema said: “We love the hype of awards season here at Backyard Cinema so wanted to put together something to celebrate our personal selection of the best films, in an environment that makes a biggerdeal about them than your average cinema. A red carpet, 1950’s usherettes, a glass of fizz and some breath-taking views of London are the perfect accompaniment, along with some Backyard Cinema style surprises thrown in for good measure.”
Set 29 floors above London, you’ll arrive on the red carpet before being whisked up to enjoy a celebration of film and enjoy incredible views over the capital. Once inside, our traditional 1950s usherettes will be on hand to lead you into acinematic extravaganza, featuring fabulous food from Skyloft restaurant andHollywood inspired cocktails. To get you well and truly in the mood for movies, there will be popcorn and ice cream, a series of short films & retro trailers and a few Backyard Cinema surprises, of course.
For this brand new series, Backyard Cinema has teamed up with Bacardi & one of the countries leading cocktail mixologists Ally Martin, to create bespoke cocktails inspired by the glamour of Hollywood to accompany your screening.
