THE biggest LED screen ever seen in Manchester will come to Old Trafford this Christmas as part of a pop-up drive-in cinema event.

The supersized festive drive-in at Manchester United FC will offer Trafford residents the pick of Christmas classics without even having to get out their motor.

The likes of Frozen, Elf, Gremlins and Home Alone will be shown in high resolution on the state of the art £1.2 million screen – measuring a 100 metres square and one of just three in the world.

A spokesman for the Manchester Magical Drive In Movie Spectacular said: “The screen will take up residence in the grounds of Manchester United Football Club for six days only from 19 December, with its finale on Christmas Eve.

“With three showings each day, cinema goers are encouraged to turn up early to enjoy pre-show live entertainment. Live appearances from favourite children’s characters are promised, plus in-car karaoke – or ‘caraoke’ if you will.”

“There’s no need to miss a word of your favourite films, as sound will be piped straight to your car stereo. Just tune your radio to Santa FM for the ultimate in in-car entertainment.

“Throughout the showings, the Magical Drive In elves will be on patrol to reward good boys and girls with prizes from Santa.

“So be on your best behaviour. Organisers are encouraging people to get into the festive spirit and festive jumpers, onesies and fancy dress are all welcomed.”

Film fans are welcome to bring their own food and non-alcoholic drinks. Toilets and a a drive-in street food market will be on site.
