The drive-in cinema made a comeback at Mall Of The Emirates with a private function last night, as the property and VOX Cinemas took the movie-going experience outdoors. The screenings will be open for the general public from May 17, Sunday, onwards.

With social distancing measures keeping theatres closed for the foreseeable future, a large screen was assembled in the shopping centre's upper parking lot (level 3 near Ski Dubai) in front of which patrons were able to take position, switch off their engines and settle in for some screen action while observing sensible practices to combat the Covid-19 pandemic.
