Brighton Museum turns its Central Gallery into a cinema for Rocky Horror

It is the museum's first pop-up cinema. Picturehouse is helping run the one-night Halloween screening on Saturday 31 October.

Brighton Museum will screen The Rocky Horror Picture Show in its Central Gallery on Saturday 31 October at 9.15pm. Tickets are £20.

The museum says it is the first time in its long history that it has hosted a pop-up cinema in the gallery. Picturehouse is helping to turn the space into a cinema for the night.

Dressing up is encouraged, and there is a prize for the best-dressed guest. You can bring your own snacks but not alcohol. A bar will be open, and more substantial food will be on sale.

The film is rated 12A.
