Enchanted Cinema presents THE LION KING (U)

This Disney animated feature follows the adventures of the young lion Simba (Jonathan Taylor Thomas), the heir of his father, Mufasa (James Earl Jones). Simba's wicked uncle, Scar (Jeremy Irons), plots to usurp Mufasa's throne by luring father and son into a stampede of wildebeests. But Simba escapes, and only Mufasa is killed. Simba returns as an adult (Matthew Broderick) to take back his homeland from Scar with the help of his friends Timon (Nathan Lane) and Pumbaa (Ernie Sabella).

 

“Notorious tear-jerker, but this is Disney at its best” Film4

 

Enchanted Cinema is back for its 5th-year of inner-city cinematic magic. They return this year to one of their favourite venues, The Gonville Hotel’s magical gardens, in the centre of our beautiful city.

 

Well have the bar open and fully stocked, full of Cambridge's independent suppliers (and sterilized) - so please, continue to leave the picnic at home and let us take care of the drinks and nibbles for the evening. 

 

These guys are all about creating an original and vibrant cinema scene that offers an exciting way to watch a great film. Expect to be wowed by a short film before each screening, magical light installations and live music from local artists. These events are set to be the most magical of the summer.

 

Seating will be placed in bookings for the moment being, an arrangement of the bookings will be awaiting in the evening. We operate the evening on a first come first serve basis. We are a rain or shine event so if the Great British weather surprises us and the skies open, the event will go ahead so make sure you bring warm and waterproof clothes (just in case). 

 

Sit back in a deckchair, fresh popcorn and a drink in hand, and experience cinema as you never have before this summer…
