Rooftop Film Club | High-Altitude Flicks
Rooftop Film Club is back.
Which is good news, because now, when people ask us the question, “Where should I go to watch a selection of both the best classic and new release films under the setting sun and into the starlit night, with deckchairs, and a bar?” (as they often do) we no longer have to politely deflect and change the subject.
They’re setting up on the rooftops at Peckham’s Bussey Rooftop Bar & Roof East in Stratford, both of which are equipped with plenty of street food (pizza from Share-a-Slice, stuffed Turkish flatbreads from Piddaji, fried chicken at Chick’n’Sours, etc.), as well as bottomless popcorn, cocktails & craft beers, deckchairs, love seats, and very handy wireless headphones. RFC is one of the godfathers of London’s outdoor cinemas, and being set on rooftops, the view is almost as good off screen as on it.
The 2024 season kicks off on 18th April, and as always the line-up covers a lot of bases. You’ve got this year’s Oscar winners Oppenheimer and Poor Things; rom-coms like Notting Hill and 10 Things I Hate About You; more recent releases like Barbie, Anatomy of a Fall and Past Lives; and a boatload of cult classics like Clueless, Pulp Fiction and Fight Club.
But they don’t like to talk about that one.
NOTE: Rooftop Film Club returns from 18th April. Tickets are now on sale right HERE.
