I want to try and raise 15k to help rebuild Holland Sports Club, here in the heart of Barton under Needwood. In order to achieve this, I’ve purchased the rights to play 12 classic films, to screen, once a month, over the next year. ALL of the ticket money will go to rebuilding the club, I’m not keeping a penny of it to cover expenses. I urge you to please to click on the box above and watch the brilliant and inspiring video created by the fundraising committee, and see what you think.

Finding us is easy! We're conveniently located just off the A38 between Lichfield and Burton on Trent, with plenty of free and hassle-free parking. Nestled beside the bustling boat village at Barton Marina, you can take a leisurely stroll along the promenade, enjoy a scenic walk around the lakes, treat yourself to an ice cream, browse the art gallery, shop for clothing, or—most importantly—dine, drink, and watch a film at The Red Carpet.

Above all, we want you to relax and enjoy yourself while we take care of everything. We also strive to offer great value for money, with options like a one-course lunch or breakfast & matinee ticket from just £15.95 per person, or a two-course evening meal and film from £29.95 per person. If you’d prefer to watch a film without dining, our cosy, comfortable cinemas offer tickets at £7.95 in the morning, £9.95 in the afternoon, and £11.95 from 5pm onwards.

Booking is simple! Just press 'CINEMA' under the pictures above, select your film and time, and explore four weeks of scheduled screenings. If you're planning ahead, simply navigate to 'Next Week,' 'Week Three,' or 'Week Four' to find future dates. Once you've chosen your film and seat, you'll be prompted to decide if you'd like to dine—we’ll handle the timings for you. No credit card needed, no booking fee, and parking is safe, well-lit, and well-maintained.

If you're just looking to book a café bar table, press 'CAFE BAR' and follow the straightforward instructions.
