E.T. at the drive-in cinema

The perfect socially distant weekend activity.

If you are yet to make plans for the weekend (I mean; who makes plans anymore these days…?), you might be interested to know about this very retro movie coming to the Drive-In Cinema at Leopardstown Racecourse in south Dublin.

Grab the family, pick up some bags of popcorn and M&Ms and head to the movies – all in the comfort of your own car!

If E.T. isn’t your cup of tea (or you think 9 PM might be a bit late, fear not – there are plenty of other movies to catch at the drive-in cinema.

At Leopardstown, you can also catch Matilda, The BFG and Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory this weekend as part of their Roald Dahl tribute weekend.

Retro Drive-In Movies is the perfect, family-friendly day out – and admit it, there is something seriously fun about being able to go to the movies in your pyjamas!

Bring along your favourite treats (due to COVID restrictions, there are no food trucks operating on site right now), grab your cosiest blanket and pillow for extra in-car comfort, and off you go.
