Edinburgh Gin to host a huge 'Netflix party' movie night amid lockdown - and this is how you can join in

Going to the cinema is off the cards during lockdown as the country stays indoors amid the coronavirus pandemic.

However, one gin distillery is bringing a movie night right to the comfort of your living room.

Edinburgh Gin has has invited its fans to tune in for a digital movie night at 8pm this evening - and pouring yourself a tipple is encouraged.

Bill Murray's Groundhog Day was voted the film for screening by the gin brand’s followers in a social media poll.

And to ease the strain of social distancing, the movie night will be hosted through ‘ Netflix Party ’, allowing viewers to engage with each other in real-time during the film via a live chat panel.

Edinburgh Gin will also be running an in-movie quiz throughout the screening where some goodies are up for grabs.

For those looking to re-stock their gin trolleys, Edinburgh Gin has announced that £1 from every purchase made through its online store will go to UK drinks industry charity The Drinks Trust.

So get your gin and tonic and popcorn at the ready for a night on the sofa with fellow movie fans.

A link to the party will be shared on the brand’s Facebook and Twitter before 8pm tonight.
