The Nomad Cinema presents Prince's Purple Rain at St Paul's Cathedral - UPCOMING CULT SCREENING
London in the summer time is truly something to behold just ask the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and this summer certainly seems to be carrying the flag of Great British Summers. So much so that there just doesn't seem to be enough time to fit everything in during the daylight hours. Now more can be made of your time as the growth of spectacular outdoor pop up cinemas continues steadily and makes the most of the London Summer. No doubt your days were packed but oh oh the summer nights. One of the better outdoor pop up cinemas, not only in terms of: attention to detail, comfort, variety, consistently stunning architectural backdrops for their screenings, entertainment and social consciousness is without doubt - The Nomad Cinema. Get ready for Prince's Purple Rain as you have never experienced before!
NOMADIST: intrepid, bold, adventurous, film-lover
The Nomad Cinema is the roaming pop-up that gives back: since 2010, The Nomad has earned the reputation as ‘London’s best outdoor cinema’ [Evening Standard], popping up at an inspiring range of beautiful, unique and intriguing screening locations across London and beyond.
The Nomad is about community: our sister cinema is the acclaimed and much-loved independent boutique cinema The Lexi in Kensal Rise, London NW10. Both cinemas are partly run by dedicated volunteers and have developed partnerships with a diverse range of kindred cultural organisations, ethical companies and fairtrade suppliers.

Next week check out more building beauty at Brown Hart Gardens , an oasis in the heart of Mayfair just moments away from the bustling streets off Oxford Street. Here we screen A Streetcar Named Desire, Vertigo and Inception.
Then in September the impressive buildings that house the Royal Academy of Arts, which are nearly 250 years old, become home to our Courtyard Cinema at the RA where we screen Taxi Driver, Some Like It Hot , Mulholland Drive and Slumdog Millionaire.
The appreciation of London’s architecture of course extends to the newer developments too with the now iconic Wembley arch as the backdrop to our screenings on Olympic Way at Wembley Park. Here we’re showing Slumdog Millionaire and Pulp Fiction.
And who can resist the beautifully eerie Brompton Cemetery with its gorgeous 19th century Chapel, and the stunning Colonnades that run parallel from the amazing Catacombs up to the Chapel. On the big screen at the end of the main avenue, amongst the impressive monuments and headstones will be The Night of the Hunter, Psycho and The Birds.
