May begins and ends with the big hitters.
The month starts with the eagerly awaited Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3, kicking off the summer movie season with a bang.
Reach for the stars and strap in as the ragtag gang of space adventurers race to rescue one of their own in this spectacular, spirited and darkly comic last chapter of the Guardians’ story.
And see the month out with Disney’s Little Mermaid (May 26), a new version of the beloved tale of Ariel, a fiesty mermaid princess with a thirst for adventure.
Sandwiched between these brilliant blockbusters are plenty of other silver screen scene-stealers, including the live screening of the Eurovision 2023 Grand Final.
Here are all the films you can watch in style from your reclining luxury leather seat at Vue cinema this month – and don’t forget all the great restaurants and bars you can visit at Festival Place before or after your big screen experience.
