BIG SCREEN IN THE GARDEN 2021

Exeter Phoenix is thrilled to be presenting this year’s outdoor cinema programme taking place in a new location in Exeter city centre. This summer Exeter Phoenix are celebrating our community and we are so excited about welcoming you back to share the magic of cinema together that we want to make all tickets free. We can already smell the popcorn!

Big (12A)

Dir Penny Marshall. 1988, 104 mins. USA.
Gates 5pm | Film: 5.45pm

When 13 year-old Josh Baskin is rejected from the rollercoaster line at the carnival he turns to Zoltar, a curious fortune teller machine which grants his wish to be big. When Josh awakes the next morning he learns that wishes do come true. Featuring Tom Hanks in one of his most loved roles, Big is a coming of age adventure for all the family.

If you want a seat, be sure to book out a deckchair in our seating area for £5. Availability is limited so it’s well worth booking in advance. To book your deckchair for Big click here >>

Tickets must be booked in advance via Exeter Phoenix box Office and collected in person at least 24 hours before the screening. If you are unable to collect in person please call the Box Office on 01392 667080 to discuss alternative options.

Community is at the heart of Exeter Phoenix. It is the reason we exist. We strive to bring cultural events like Big Screen in the Garden to you all year round and each year, we must raise over £1.5million to ensure the people of Exeter, and beyond, have access to the absolute best the contemporary arts have to offer.

We would like you to consider donating what would have been your ticket price (or more if you can afford to) to help us continue the work we do. It will help us secure future events, support local and emerging talent and deliver vital arts projects in the creative community.

Thank you for being the reason we exist.

Concessions

The Candyfloss Kids will be dishing out popcorn, candy floss and a world of cinema treats to see you through the movie. A bar will be on site selling a selection of alcoholic and soft drinks.

Seating

Pack a picnic blanket, but leave the seating to us. We’ve listened to your feedback and so to ensure everyone has the best experience and view possible, we won’t be offering a ‘bring a chair’ option.

If you want a seat, be sure to book out a deckchair in our seating area. Availability is limited so it’s well worth booking in advance. To book your deckchair for Big click here >>

An accessible view space will be marked off and will accommodate individuals who need to bring a chair.
