Free Films
More London Free Festival
More London organises a Free Festival that runs from June until early September. Within the Festival is a programme of Free Films in June, Free Music in July and Free Theatre in August until 7th September.
The outdoor amphitheatre, The Scoop at More London, provides the iconic setting. There is no need to book – seats are allocated on a first come first served basis. Many of the events reach capacity, so early arrival is highly recommended. Screenings for the films start at 9.30pm and seats must be taken by 9.15pm.
This year local café Amano will be selling delicious bar-be-qued food and providing a bar service. So come down early, soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the Free Films.
