THIS EVENT ENDED ON THE 25TH SEPTEMBER 2016
Nearby
The Floating Cinema returns this summer with screenings, talks and workshops in the custom-built boat and outdoors, on the banks of the canal. The summer programme begins on 30th July 2016 with Contracorrente (A Rio de Janeiro/London Telenovela), a live-streamed soap opera connecting performances from The Floating Cinema, Queen Elizabeth Park, London and Rio de Janeiro. Then, under the title Another Country, the cinema moves to three different moorings - in Hackney Wick, Kings Cross and Mile End - over three weekends: 19th to 21st August, 1st to 4th September and 23rd until 25th September, with each event using feature length film screenings, talks and workshops to explore our capital as a global city.
About Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park
A year after the 2012 London Olympic Games, the former Olympic Park re-opened as the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park - a site of over 250 acres of beautifully landscaped open space and 6.5 km of waterways. The opening of the north park on Saturday 27th July 2013 was the first phase of transforming the Olympic Park and the rest of the 560 acre park opened in spring 2014.
