Showcase Cinemas announce special one-off screening of festive favourite ‘Home Alone’

Showcase Cinemas will be getting into the Christmas spirit early with a one-off screening of ‘Home Alone’ on Sunday 25th October 2020.

The Macaulay Culkin hit will be shown for one day only at Showcase Cinemas across the UK.

At the cinema chainā€™s Bluewater Cinema de Lux in Kent, theyā€™re dressing the ‘Home Alone’ screen auditorium as a Christmas Wonderland – complete with reindeer, Christmas Trees, huge candy canes, a sleigh, Christmas presents, a man-sized Nutcracker family and all the seasonal trimmings.

Theyā€™re even going to make it snow INSIDE the cinema for a truly authentic Christmassy feel.

‘Home Alone’Ā first hit the big screen in 1990 andĀ stars a young Macaulay Culkin in the lead role as 8-year-old Kevin MacCallister who is mistakenly left at home alone whilst his mum (Catherine Oā€™Hara), dad and family head out of town on holiday. Kevin has to protect the family home from con men (Joe Pesci & Daniel Stern) who plan on robbing the MacCallister residence.

On bringing 2020ā€™s first Christmas film to UK big screens, Showcase UK General Manager Mark Barlow said: ā€œThis year has been tough on everyone and, with Christmas looking to be very different for 2020, we wanted to invite film fans to start the festive season earlier than ever before and join us for some festive fun.

ā€œWeā€™re thrilled to be able to show Home Alone as every year it has consistently topped the polls as the nationā€™s favourite Christmas movie. So, we couldnā€™t think of a better film to bring to the big screen for one day only across all our cinemas.ā€

Alongside enjoyingĀ ‘Home Alone’Ā on the big screen experience, moviegoers will be given an extra festive treat with a chocolate surprise on every seat to enjoy during the film, all included as part of the ticket price.

Tickets are on sale now for this limited edition screening and are just Ā£5. Tickets can be booked via – https://www.showcasecinemas.co.uk/film-info/_home-alone
