Moonlight Flicks screenings will not be called off before 6pm on the day of the screening – at which point a decision will be made by our team based on the weather conditions. If we do have to make the decision to cancel a screening, this will be communicated by email, so please check your inbox and junk folder.

Being outside, Moonlight Flicks can be affected by the weather. Our advice is to come as prepared as possible – with warm jumpers and umbrellas just in case. If there’s some light drizzle which is forecast to pass, we will proceed, but torrential or stormy weather may mean we have to cancel the screening.

We will make a decision based on the conditions at 6pm on the day of the screening – even the most gloomy of days can turn into a balmy evening! If your screening is cancelled, you will be emailed a form to let us know if you would like to exchange to a different screening, or to get a refund. You do not need to contact us.

Refunds will only be offered in the event that the screening is cancelled.

Well-behaved dogs are very welcome, as long as they won’t disturb other audience members.

They don’t need a ticket!

If you have booked a regular ticket, you will need to bring your own seats with you – deck chairs, outdoor beanbags and camping chairs are perfect.  
 
If you’ve booked a chair upgrade, we’ll have your deckchairs all set up for you with the very best views, for when you arrive.

If you’ve already booked your ticket but would like to upgrade, you can do this below:

The festival site is open two hours before the film start time; you are very welcome to head down from then to get set up and grab a frozen cocktail!

To ensure it is dark enough for everyone to see the screen, film times can change. The advertised start times is the earliest possible time the film will start – the latest will be 20 minutes later. 

To ensure maximum sound quality and a totally immersive experience, we will provide individual headphone sets. We have enough headphones for everyone, although customers are welcome to bring their own headphones with them to plug in to the sets if they prefer. 

Yes! There are toilets within the festival site, including accessible toilets.

The festival site is accessible with no steps leading to the site and has accessible toilets onsite – but please do bear in mind that whilst there are concrete pathways at the park, the theatre auditorium is located on grass and you will need to travel over a small area of grass to reach it.
