The festival’s popular outdoor cinema will also be returning on Friday 21st July with a Bollywood theme set to take audiences back on a nostalgic journey to 1975 with the renowned, international blockbuster, Sholay. Revered as one of the greatest Indian movies of all time, this will be the first time the classic film will be screened as a large-scale outdoor experience in the Midlands. Enjoy the summer movie night with an array of mouth watering street food, drinks, popcorn, music and Bollywood dance! The screening will take place at Jubilee Square and tickets are free, however there is also an option to pay for a reserved food and choice of Sholay themed Indian street food.
