Drive In Cinema

We have two screen sizes suitable for Drive In Cinema; our 10m which is suitable for up to 150 cars and our 8m which is suitable for up to 100 cars.

We are now the UK’s largest provider of mobile outdoor cinema equipment and our drive-in packages are becoming increasingly popular. You organise the event, sell the tickets and we then turn up with the screen, projector and sound system as well as a technician to operate all the equipment for you.

We run both Bluetooth and FM systems but highly recommend the Bluetooth system as it does not require a license to use. This saves you a significant amount of time applying for a license and filling out the paperwork as well as over £1000 in licensing fees.

    10m or 8M Wide inflatable screen

  • Powerful 16K Lumen projector

  • Bluetooth speaker for each vehicle (saving a lot of time and money!)

We were extremely impressed with the quality and standard of service that we received from SkyLight. Matthew the technician arrived in very good time and was amazing throughout – his attention to detail with both the film and safety of the event was second-to-none, the equipment went up in no time and he was extremely helpful with support for our pre-show entertainment – providing a microphone, cueing music tracks on the PA etc. The event received a bumper crowd and there wasn’t a single grumble – a real great family atmosphere! I would definitely recommend using SkyLight Cinema.

We used Skylight Cinema recently for an outdoor showing of ‘The Witches’, a film which is very important to our history and heritage. The service and communication was at all times excellent and the occasion went off without a hitch and was thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended. We are already planning our next outdoor cinema event!

Having used Skylight Cinema for a school event for the past two years, I would highly recommend them. They are very professional, the equipment is of an excellent standard and the events have run smoothly from start to finish. The staff who rigged up the events up for us were very helpful, friendly, good humoured and flexible, and helped to make the evenings a success.

Toby and his team stepped in at the last minute to solve a projection and screen issue for an outside show this year and their service was impeccable. Utilising excellent equipment, knowledge and efficiency, they set up in difficult surroundings quickly and ensured that I had nothing to worry about at any stage. I look forward to working with Toby and his team again and I’d recommend the them and their services to anyone.

Skylight Cinema helped us deliver some truly spectacular screenings during the It’s All About the River film festival. Our audiences loved seeing their screen pop up on the banks of the River Tamar and the ease, speed and flexibility of the set up enabled us to show films in some really exciting locations, like under Brunel’s classic railway bridge at Saltash waterfront.

HMS Decorative Surfacing Limited

We booked Skyline Cinemas for a private party in July 2014. We received a very good service throughout, despite the company being based so far away (Cornwall to Leicester). Everything ran very smoothly, the picture and sound quality was excellent and we could have played whatever we requested. A good company to deal with and would recommend.

Having the Skylight cinema in the elegant setting of the Tremough House grounds, was a truly magical experience for our students. The professionalism on the team was fantastic and the quality of the equipment and sound, really made the film come to life. A night enjoyed by everyone under the stars, and highly recommended by FXU!

b-side worked with Skylight Cinema to create a bespoke outdoor film event with live musicians. The team were never fazed by our often unusual requests, were endlessly helpful and accommodating and were lovely people to meet too! Outdoor events are always fraught with uncertainties and it was great to work with such a professional company in whom you could put your trust, whilst you fretted about something else!”
