Join Bristol Film Festival at Clifton Summer Screenings!
Taking place in the beautiful Mall Gardens in the heart of Clifton Village, this is outdoor cinema with a twist. With covered seating, a state-of-the-art LED screen and wireless headphones, enjoy your film come rain or shine - this is an outdoor experience that’s not to be missed.
Take a walk on the wild side on Sunday morning, starting with a screening of Madagascar. This wacky wildlife comedy from the creators of Shrek has spawned a massive franchise, but the original tail - sorry, tale - of escaped zoo animals remains a series highlight, and fun for all the family.
Joining us on Sunday morning? Learn more about our additional wildlife-themed activities here.
