Join us this Summer Solstice for a one night only event celebrating The Wicker Man, featuring additional 50th anniversary content only available in cinemas.

Before the screening there will footage from the star-studded 50th Anniversary celebration of the film. Presented by Edith Bowman, the on-stage show will include guest of honour, actress Britt Ekland, chief film critic from The Independent, Clarisse Loughrey, associate musical director from the film Gary Carpenter, Dominic and Justin Hardy – sons of the director Robin Hardy, who are currently making a documentary about their father’s experience with the film, and superfan of The Wicker Man: acclaimed writer/actor Reece Shearsmith.
