The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound and culminates in their iconic performance at Live Aid.

The following night’s entertainment, Saturday, June 15th, is The Greatest Showman (PG), an original musical inspired by P.T. Barnum, starring HughJackman, Michelle Williams and Zac Efron, and which was a word-of-mouth phenomenon captivating audiences around the globe at the end of 2017 and early 2018. 

Gates for both films open at 7.30pm with the films starting shortly after sunset and both running for around 2 hours 15 minutes. There’s hot food and snacks available, an onsite bar and onsite parking.
