Dartford council has announced an extra date for a popular film.

The free 2018 Outdoor Cinema season is showing multiple movies throughout August in Central Park.

It is described by the council as perfect for family and friends.

There was a massive response to tickets but a number of residents did not receive notification’s from the council regarding the release last week.

They missed out on the chance to grab tickets.

Due to the popularity of one of the films - The Greatest Showman - the council has arranged an extra performance on Tuesday, August 28.

Council leader Cllr Jeremy Kite (Con) think it’s great that the outdoor cinema has helped rejuvenate Central Park.

He said: “It’s wonderful that events like the Outdoor Cinema and Outdoor Theatre are so popular.

“I’m delighted that all the work we have done to regenerate Central Park and turn it into such a place of activity and enjoyment is paying off.”
