Scott Mackin, Moonlight Drive In owner, said: "Tickets are selling really well. We first had the idea two years ago during the Covid pandemic.

"The response has been really, really positive since we announced it. People love the idea, they are looking forward to trying something new and exciting this Christmas.

"We have 16 films that people can choose from now, but we have also left some spaces in the calendar in case some films become really popular and more people want to see them. We don't want to see anyone miss out.

"Home Alone, Elf and Frozen are proving to be really popular so far. We have a real mixture of films, lots of kids' favourites perfect for families and movies which older audiences will love. We have the perfect Christmas movie for people of all ages."
