ODSAL Stadium will still reopen as a drive-in cinema this week – kicking off with a series of classic films.

Bradford Bulls has teamed up with Blue Sky Cinema for the screenings in the rugby league side’s former home.

The club confirmed today on social media that the events will still take place despite Bradford being placed under Tier 3 restrictions from next Wednesday.

 

Viewers will also be given a bit of early festive cheer with a wide range of classic and up-to-date films, spanning from Grease to The Joker, in a socially distanced and safe manner.

The season will kick off with The Greatest Showman, starring Hugh Jackman, on Friday, December 4, at 6pm.

It will feature a host of Christmas classics including Elf, Home Alone, Rocketman, Bad Boys 2, Die Hard, The Goonies and The Holiday.

It will be take two for the event, which was originally due to take place this month, but was cancelled due to the national lockdown.

Event organisers have said should the Government restrictions state that an event cannot take place, customers will be offered either a film swap to a location that can operate drive in movies, or offer a full refund.
