The afternoon showing of Trolls will take place at 2.30pm and 1917 will be shown at 8.30pm.

Sound will be transmitted via the car radio given to each car upon arrival, allowing passengers to tune in to the film at the flick of a switch.

Mayor of Mid and East Antrim, Councillor Peter Johnston, said: “We are extremely excited to host this Drive-In cinema in Ballymena and feel that it offers the perfect solution for an event when social distancing is required.

“We have some great movies to show which will appeal to people of all ages and we know everyone will have a great time.”
