“Being able to watch this iconic film actually at Crow Crag and celebrate my husbands birthday in such an amazing way. He already wants to book for next year and go to other Picnic Cinema events. My sister in law is disabled and the team couldn’t have been any more helpful and supportive in helping us access the site so that she could be part of our celebrations. This was our first Picnic Cinema event but certainly won’t be the last!” -Audience Member 2018
