St Saviourgate and cinema chain Picturehouse have teamed up to bring festival favorites such as Elf, Home Alone and The Polar Express to the big screen at St Saviourgate's Grade II listed grounds.
Movies are shown in the two-story Great Hall of St. Saviour's Gate, with high ceilings, stained glass windows, and a magnificent organ.
In addition to “Paddington in Peru,'' “A Muppet Christmas Carol,'' “The Nightmare Before Christmas,'' “It's a Wonderful Life'' and “Love Actually'' will also be screened.
'Controversial Christmas classic' 'Die Hard' offers an alternative for adults.
“Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone'' and “Wonka'' will also appear.
Chris Williams, Venue Manager at St Saviourgate, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with the amazing Picture House this Christmas to provide the perfect backdrop for a specially curated selection of popular Christmas films. .”
“Picturehouse cinemas are located in beautiful locations across the country, so it was no surprise that we chose the stunning and historic Great Hall in St Saviourgate York for this festive pop-up.
“York is a popular Christmas shopping destination and St Saviourgate York's central location, coupled with an exciting film line-up, means we expect a sold-out season, so don't be disappointed! We recommend you book now.”
From December 12th to December 23rd, Picturehouse will be showing twice a day on a large, state-of-the-art pop-up screen in St Saviourgate.
Tickets can be pre-booked for £15 per adult and £12 per child, with family tickets available for £24.
