Cut loose with Footloose!

When city kid Ren McCormack finds himself in a small town where dancing and rock music are outlawed, his fight for freedom sparks a movement that brings the whole community back to life. Packed with unforgettable ’80s hits like Holding Out for a Hero, Let’s Hear It for the Boy, and the iconic title track Footloose, this cult classic is pure energy, rebellion, and joy on the big screen.

This is a sing-along screening of the 1984 film (rated PG). Presented in a large, open space with ambient lighting, audiences are free to move around, making it a sensory-friendly and relaxed experience.

And don’t forget — it’s the perfect excuse to dust off your neon, legwarmers, and big hair for a totally ’80s night out!
