Vue in Carlisle has a host of family favourites and animated adventures heading to the big screen this summer holidays.

With the school year now at a close, these films provide ample opportunity to spend quality time with the family.

This summer, join Joy and friends, as well as Gru and the Minion crew, with the release of Despicable Me 4.

The latest instalment sees the former villain turned family man clash against new nemesis Maxime Le Mal and his girlfriend Valentina, promising more Minion mischief and laughs.

Inside Out 2 makes its long-awaited return almost nine years after its heartwarming predecessor.

The new film invites viewers back to the world of Riley’s mind, where she is now faced with a whole new cast of unfamiliar emotions as she enters her teenage years, sparking another adventure.

Vue’s new Mighty Morning screenings offer returns of beloved films like Garfield, IF, Kung Fu Panda 4 and Little Monsters, all from £2.49 when tickets are booked online.

Vue’s Big Shorts will bring back favourite children’s characters from television shows and web series, including The Gruffalo's Child and Zog and the Flying Doctors.

These short screenings feature a relaxed big screen environment with dimmed lights and reduced sound, tailored for young film fans aged one to four.

Tickets for Big Short screenings start at £3.99 when booked online.

Matt Haughan, general manager at Vue in Carlisle, said: "We’ve got a great selection of new films and big screen entertainment on show, offering a perfect way to enjoy quality family time while school is out for the summer.

"With film screenings from just £4.99, the big screen experience at Vue is the perfect treat during the half term break.

"Even better, our Vue Mighty Mornings at 10am, will continue to show the latest kids’ films from just £2.49 a ticket if purchased online and £3.49 in venue.

"Parents and children can come along, immerse themselves in great stories and switch off."
