Also on Saturday, May 22 the cinema will be airing the Glastonbury Festival on their big screens.

As the festival has been cancelled again this year, organisers are putting on a special event, enabling music fans to join together and still get to experience the festival but from the comfort of a cinema.

A spokesperson for the Abbeygate cinema, said: "Showing on Saturday from 7pm on our new premier screen, this spectacular event will be making a splash for our opening weekend along with other new and exciting film titles and a special great night out event: The Greatest Showman for which your ticket price will include a special three course meal."

Tickets are on sale for £19.50 now from the Abbeygate cinema website.
