The Queen

British citizens missing the movie-going can experience films like they’re English royalty, almost.

Over in the UK - The Sandringham Estate, the private home of her royal majesty Queen Elizabeth will be opening up to to host drive-in movie events. It’s not quite home cinema, like we normally discuss on here - more like palace garden cinema.

Starting in September the royal house will open up for a handful of special drive-in showings of titles including 1917, The Greatest Showman, Moana and A Star is Born. Additional movies on the September lineup are Bohemian Rhapsody, Toy Story and Rocketman.

Visitors will set up at Sandringham Country Park where they will be provided with transmitters that will allow movie audio to play in their car. Tickets are set to cost £37.50 but for an extra £7.50, moviegoers can upgrade their drive-in experience with a bigger parking spot, deck chairs, a table and popcorn.

Just like regular movie theaters, the Sandringham Estate drive-in touts concessions, with a pop-up bar featuring soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, popcorn and snacks.
