A massive outdoor screening of hit musical favourite The Greatest Showman is coming to the historic grounds of Leeds' Harewood House this September - and tickets have just gone on sale.
The 2017 smash shit, which featured Zac Efron and Hugh Jackman, is inspired by the story of P. T. Barnum's creation of Barnum's American Museum and its star attractions.
It tells the tale of a visionary who rose from oblivion to create a spectacular worldwide sensation through the original using the medium of song - featuring nine original tracks from Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.
This September, it will come to Leeds for a special one-off singalong screening at stunning 18th-century countryside manor Harewood House.
Nestled in the stunning Yorkshire countryside, a huge outdoor screen will be situated on the North Lawn in front of the house for the event.
Hosted in partnership with the Luna Cinema, there will be a bar on-site serving a good selection of alcoholic and soft drinks and hot food will also be available to purchase from Harewood House's gourmet street food vendors.
Alternatively, if you like, you're welcome to pack a picnic for the night - just note that glass bottles are not allowed on site.
Tickets are priced at £16 for adults, £11 for children and £8 for disabled guests attending with a carer.
The singalong screening is just one of a series of special screenings planned at the grounds this September.
Other exciting film classics with tickets newly on sale include Dirty Dancing, Top Gun and Downtown Abbey.
Located roughly 8 miles outside of Leeds, there is parking for drivers with stewards on hand to direct you on arrival.
It's worth noting that tickets can only be booked online in advance of the events - so make sure to book early if you don't want to miss out on this special screening under the stars.

Jacob Elordi says the sexiest thing about Yorkshire is ‘rocks and sheep’
As women around the world swoon over Jacob Elordi, he's too busy loving rocks and sheep.
In case you haven't been on social media over the past week and managed to avoid the influx of paparazzi images, the hotly anticipated 'Wuthering Heights' adaptation is out soon and with that comes heaps of red carpets, screenings and glamorous premieres.
Famously set against the brooding hills of Yorkshire, Wuthering Heights by our very own Emily Brontë follows the tumultuous love story of Heathcliff and Cathy.
Played in the upcoming film by Australian heartthrobs Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie.
During the recent London premiere where Elordi was seen wearing a rather dashing green three piece, the stars were asked what they thought the 'sexiest' thing about Yorkshire is by HitsRadioUK.
A valid question to which Jacob replies "rocks and sheep". I mean, he's got a fair point.
Margot Robbie went into a little more detail, she said "Sunrise and sunset in Yorkshire is a pretty dramatic experience. The sky is literally like red and orange. I honestly couldn't believe it when I was out there. The landscape is stunning."
Why thank you Margot, we absolutely agree. She continues to shower us with compliments stating that the "People are lovely. Pubs are great. I love it"
It seems like Margot has got Yorkshire pretty bang on there, and if she ever needs any pub recommendations then we'll absolutely help her out.
Jacob on the other hand, we know rocks and sheep are sexy but...have you ever met us?
Hopefully he fell in love with our county enough to come back, as we wouldn't mind bumping into him on a hike up the Yorkshire moors.
Popular Leeds gaming bar announces immediate shock closure after going into liquidation
Clementine Hall
Point Blank in Leeds city centre have suddenly closed after going into liquidation.
The popular gaming bar hasn't been open all that long, and was marketed as the country's first simulated shooting range bar.
Despite being a popular attraction since opening last year, the bar has closed immediately, unable to honour any future bookings.
Point Blank confirmed late this Tuesday 3 February that it had sadly entered liquidation, describing the move as “completely unforeseen and beyond our control.”

Up until just a few days ago, the Point Blank branch in Leeds had been promoting events including happy hours, shooting experiences, and even a Superbowl event scheduled for next Sunday 8 February.
A statement on their website reads: "It is with a heavy heart that we announce that Point Blank Shooting has entered liquidation.
"This situation was completely unforeseen and beyond our control. Due to our Manchester landlord entering administration, our lease was lost as part of that process. This had a serious knock-on effect across the wider business, leaving us with no other option.
"After seven incredible years of trading, this is a devastating moment for everyone involved at Point Blank.
"If you currently have a booking with us, we are working closely with the relevant parties to gain clarity and provide answers. We kindly ask for your patience while this process is ongoing.
"Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years — hopefully this is a see you later, not a goodbye."
