Home Alone [35th Anniversary]

Home Alone is back on the big screen at The Dome Cinema on Thursday 24 December, marking the film's 35th anniversary. It's a Christmas Eve screening, so it falls right on the day the story is set, with Kevin McCallister left behind in Chicago while his family heads off on holiday.

If you've only ever seen it on a telly or a laptop, there's something different about having it projected in a cinema. The whole thing works as a family outing, and seeing it on the big screen gives the physical comedy and the traps Kevin sets for the Wet Bandits a bit more room to breathe. It's a film that's become a bit of a fixed point in the Christmas calendar for a lot of people, and this is a chance to catch it in a proper cinema setting rather than just waiting for it to turn up on the telly.

There are three separate showings throughout the day, so you can pick the one that fits your plans. The first is at 09:15, the second at 11:30, and the third at 17:00. With three to choose from, it works whether you're looking for a morning trip with the kids or something to do in the late afternoon before you head off for Christmas Eve dinner. All three are at The Dome Cinema in Worthing, so you've got a choice of when to head in.
