Tickets

Tickets go on sale Wednesday 5th November at 7.30am exclusively at itison.com/drivein   

Tickets are £40 per car , which includes a £5 booking fee. 

To help cover the costs of services like 7 day customer support, and invest in new and innovative experiences, we charge a nominal service fee when an order is placed. 

Your ticket covers your car, a driver and up to 4 passengers. We recommend you don’t overload your car to ensure all passengers can comfortably view the screen through the windscreen. 

You must bring your ticket to the event – either printed out or on your phone.  

Please be aware that signal may be patchy at the ticketing car park – we recommend (and encourage) you to take a screenshot of your ticket before driving to the event.  

We will not be physically taking tickets and will scan them through the car window.  

Absolutely!  

You’re welcome to attend as many screenings as you like.  

If you have tickets for consecutive screenings, please let the ticketing & parking team know when you arrive and show them your ticket for the next movie(s). A steward will guide your car forward to the front of the park or ask you to re-join the queue to enter again between screenings.
