Picturehouse Brings Outdoor Cinema To Brighton

Picturehouse Outdoor Cinema has returned to Brighton for its 2025 tour. In June and August, film fans can enjoy classic cult favourites, feel-good blockbusters, and iconic musical moments – all set against the stunning backdrop of Preston Manor’s historic gardens.

Whether you’re a die-hard cinephile or just in it for the vibes, this is your chance to experience cinema in a whole new way: under the stars, surrounded by warm summer air, snacks in hand, and a cosy blanket around your shoulders.
