Weathering with You + Your Name double bill on 15th January 2020

November 29, 2019 · 0 comments

Back in September, we were able to announce the fantastic news that we’d be bringing the new film from Your Name director Makoto Shinkai, Weathering With You, to UK cinemas in early 2020. To put it bluntly, the outpouring of excitement and love for Shinkai’s works in the wake of that announcement absolutely floored us, and we’ve only seen that fervour grow via sold out screenings at Scotland Loves Anime and the BFI in London, and from talking to you at events like MCM London Comic Con, where we revealed the film’s full UK theatrical start date as the 17th of January 2020.

With all of this in mind, we wanted to do something really special with selected cinemas to celebrate Makoto Shinkai’s most popular films, and to that end today we’re thrilled to reveal that over 30 cinemas around the UK will not only be offering you a chance to watch Weathering With You a couple of days before its full UK-wide release on January 15th 2020, but they’ll also be offering this up as a double bill feature with his previous classic, Your Name! What better way could there be to spend an evening that watching two stunning and emotional films back-to-back on the big screen with your friends?

Tickets to these special screenings are on sale now, so if that’s all you need to know to pique your interest, then head on over to our ticket booking web site using the button below to find a double bill screening near you – otherwise, read on for some more details!
