Blues Brother at The Vue Charity Screening
Vue Cinemas, Festival Place, Festival Way, Basingstoke RG21 7BB
If it’s been a while since you’ve seen it, or you’d be seeing it for the first time, what better way to Jake and Elwood in action than on the big screen, in a freshly refurbished screen with brand new electric reclining seats? Not only that, but instead of 30-minutes of ads and trailers before the film starts, you’ll be treated to the 11-minute delight that is APPARITION – our Best Film winner at last year’s Exit 6 Film Festival. By joining us for this special screening you’ll also be giving to a great cause! All profits from the evening will be going to the Ark Cancer Centre Charity, which is the Exit 6 charity partner for 2017.
