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.
This year, one of their new features is the ‘Fireside Loveseat’ where movie goers can snuggle up in a loveseat for 2 with a personal wood-heater and a hot drink. Best to catch while the weather is still clemently inclement.
The 2024 season kicks off on 10th April, and as always the line-up covers a lot of bases. There’s everything from newness like Wicked, Nosferatu, and Anora (one of which is a sing-a-long screening) to more robust classics including La La Land, Eternal Sunshine, Interstellar, and Notting Hill. There’s even going to be a two hour-long Friends watch party.
It’s The One With All The Best Episodes.
NOTE: Rooftop Film Club returns from 10th April. Tickets are now on sale right HERE.
