A historic observatory in Wirral is offering new cinema nights and tickets are due to go on sale next week.
The owners of the iconic building are hosting a number of open-air cinema nights on top of the famous Bidston Hill over a weekend in July.
They have chosen a variety of films from the Sundance Festival 2021 hit All Light, Everywhere to classic supernatural horror The Fog.
The organisers will also have food and drinks vendors on site, portaloos and accessible areas.
They said: "This event is outdoors, so please dress appropriately – we recommend that you bring your own blankets and cushions to make the most of this experience.
"We have taken into account government guidance relating to social distancing, and will safely accommodate you and your group from arrival through to departure.
"Tickets are priced at £20 per plot, and each plot comfortably seats up to 6 people. If you have any access requirements, we are happy to reserve an accessible space for you – just email access@andfestival.org.uk before you purchase your ticket."
