New Hartlepool outdoor cinema to show latest releases after 'phenomenal public demand'

Audiences will be able to enjoy The Quiet Place 2, In The Heights, Cruella, Fast & Furious 9, The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard and Marvel’s latest movie release Black Widow from the comfort of their own cars at Nightflix’s Seaton Carew cinema.

Drive-in favourites Grease, The Goonies, The Greatest Showman, Bohemian Rhapsody, Joker and A Star Is Born will also be shown.

Nightflix, founded two years ago, says it is adding the new movies to its updated schedule “following phenomenal public demand”.

The Hartlepool site, which is near the Sports Domes, off Tees Road, opened last month and is one of five Nightflix cinemas nationwide.

The company has said it “is continuing to expand operations with the aim of becoming the most engaging & community orientated drive-in cinema operator in the UK”.

Chief executive officer Ben Stonehouse added: “Following the amazing demand we’ve seen with our drive-in cinemas around the UK, we are thrilled to bring the latest releases to audiences around the UK.”

Screenings at the Hartlepool site, which used to be a car park, usually begin at 10pm.

It opened after a licensing application was approved by Hartlepool Borough Council.

The cinema is allowed to offer refreshments until 2am although it is not permitted to serve alcohol.

Tickets per car are £29 plus booking fee, with a 50% discount SUMMER50 code available until June 11, and can be booked online at www.nightflix.co.uk.
