A new public space is opening at Barking Riverside - and we’re marking it with a day of open-air cinema 🎬 The Circus and Kings Hill will officially launch next month with three outdoor screenings on Saturday 16th May. The day will start with family-friendly films in the afternoon, with something a bit more grown-up on offer in the evening: 📽️ 1pm – Inside Out 2 (U) 📽️ 4pm – Goat (PG) 📽️ 7pm – Top Gun: Maverick (12A) These brand-new destinations have been designed for everyday use, with open lawns, play areas, places to sit, and routes through the neighbourhood – with this launch event being a great opportunity to walk the space and explore. Join us to have a look around, grab some food and drink (with food trucks, snacks and a full bar), and settle into a deckchair for a film or two. The screenings are an all-weather event, so come prepared for the great British weather; sun hats and suncream or raincoats and wellies! 🎟️ Adults £5 | Children £3 Tickets are limited and need to be booked in advance to avoid disappointment – use the link in bio to get yours now! 📍 Circus and Kings Hill, Barking Riverside *Whilst the official launch event will take place on Saturday 16th May, hoarding will be removed from Friday 1st May. This will mean that residents can start enjoying the spaces over the Bank Holiday weekend. #BarkingRiverside #OpenAirCinema #OutdoorCinema #LondonEvents
