“Tim Burton’s modern-day fable succeeds beautifully as sharp comedy and achingly sad romance”
DOORS: 17:30 | FILM STARTS 17:50
Join us in Arnos Vale Cemetery, Bristol’s very own necropolis, for two nights of screenings dedicated to the master of gothic fantasy, Tim Burton! Enter this fascinating space after hours, get a drink from our pop-up bar, then make your way to the beautiful Anglican Chapel to take your seat, and enjoy the show in this unique venue.
