An exciting programme of events is returning to Chirk Castle this summer - and even 'The King' will be making an appearance.

Following the success of their sold-out Mamma Mia tour last year, Adventure Cinema has confirmed it will be returning for a three-night run of its popular outdoor cinema experience at the National Trust property.

And the screenings, which run from Friday, September 22 to Sunday, September 24, will conclude with an extraordinary opportunity for Elvis fans to step into the legendary world of 'The King' himself.

The final night will see Baz Luhrmann's breathtaking new Elvis movie, which has been shattering box office records worldwide, showcased in an awe-inspiring outdoor cinema experience as part of Adventure Cinema's latest UK-wide tour.
