Summer Screens, Coventry
Having been bombed to near-total
annihilation during the Coventry
Blitz of 1940, Coventry Cathedral was
rebuilt during the 1950s and 60s.
Significant parts of the old cathedral
still remain and it’s in these
stunningly renovated ruins that
Summer Screens bring their
penchant for crowd-pleasing movies
in unconvential spaces to an eager
local audience.
Enjoy the sun setting on these
beautiful ruins and partake in a quiet
moment of reflection, before
immersing yourself in one of your
favourite films.
Says managing director Philip
Cottle, “As the sun sets and the
atmosphere builds, the 1000-year-old walls, pillars and arches
illuminate in a rainbow of colour
and the stars begin to shine
overhead. Films in 2019 include A
Star Is Born, Bohemian Rhapsody
and Harry Potter and the
Philosopher's Stone.”
