The screening site at “Wall-E” the site is grass-covered, in the Royal Observatory Gardens.
Best access to the park is from the Blackheath Gate or from St Mary’s Gate, close to Greenwich High Street.
In the oldest of the Royal Parks, covering 183 acres, part of the Greenwich World Heritage site and home to the Prime Meridian Line, we invite you to join us in the fitting surroundings of The Old Royal Observatory, for a series of three outdoor cinema screenings themed around travel through space and time.
Widely regarded as one of the best films of the decade, WALL-E sees Pixar ask the question - “what if mankind had to desert Planet Earth and somebody forgot to turn off the last robot?” A beautifully brilliant and sad love story, with buckets of charm, wit and heart, WALL-E is Pixar Studios at their finest - and what better backdrop than the Old Royal Observatory? Britain’s first purpose-built scientific research centre, built in 1675 to a design by Sir Christopher Wren, commissioned by King Charles III, the observatory is home to the Prime Meridian, the official starting point of each new day and year. Come along for a special evening of cinema under the stars to wonder, as so many have here, at the possibilities of space and time travel.
Why not book tickets for all three Nomad screenings at The Old Royal Observatory in Greenwich Park? On Sunday 7 August, we present Stanley Kubrick’s epic 2001: A Space Odyssey, before we return on Saturday 24 September for Back to the Future.
The Pavilion Teahouse will be open, serving food and drink, including alcohol. Bring something warm to wear for after sunset. Places are limited so please book early to avoid maaasive disappointment.
We’ll be doing 20 Nomad events in London’s Royal Parks this year - view the full schedule for Royal Parks outdoor cinema.
Please note that for public safety and environmental reasons, glass is not permitted anywhere in the Royal Parks. If bringing a picnic, please bring plastic cups and plastic bottles instead. Many thanks.
The two sites at Greenwich Park are both located adjacent to the Royal Observatory Gardens (boasting the best views in London!). The screening site for “Back To The Future” and “2001″ is in front of the Wolfe statue, for “Wall-e” it is in the Royal Observatory Gardens. Both are accessed from the Blackheath Gate or from St Mary’s Gate, close to Greenwich High Street.
