Outdoor Cinema Event Returns

Tuesday, 3 August 2010
Another fantastic free outdoor cinema event is returning to Connaught Park - following a 'squeak-quence' of successful films over recent years - and 'Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel' (U) will be showing in the Dover park on Friday 27 August.

The event is being organised by Dover District Council and the film will start around sunset (around 8.15pm to 8.30pm). The gates will open at 7pm. Visitors are welcome to bring picnics, and there will be refreshments available to buy at the event, but alcohol will not be permitted.

There are a limited number of tickets available. Free tickets can be collected now from DDC Area Offices in Dover and Sandwich, the Area Office at Aylesham Health Centre, the Visitor Information Centre in Deal, and the main Council offices at Whitfield, with a maximum of five per person. Children aged five and under do not need tickets. You must provide proof of being a district resident and be over 18 to collect a ticket. Entry to the outdoor cinema event will be by ticket only.

Cllr Nigel Collor, DDC Cabinet Member for Access and Property Management, said: "Following the tremendous success of this event over the past four years, we are looking forward to another great evening in this superb setting, and we thank everyone who has worked so hard to bring this all together again."

Cllr Sue Chandler, DDC Cabinet Member for Community, Housing and Youth said: "This is a great event that has proved very popular. We are very pleased to be able to continue to bring the outdoor cinema to Connaught Park, as part of a range of events for all the family that the District Council arranges for the community."
