We'll see you there, so.

Could the weather be ANY better for this?

A special outdoor  screening of The Greatest Showman is taking place in Dublin this week.

Happenings and 7Up Free are bringing the musical story of P.T. Barnum, as he goes from being a tailor’s son to the ringmaster at the “Greatest Show on Earth”, to Dublin’s Merrion Square on Friday night.

There will be plenty of food and treats available – and guests are encouraged to bring seating or blankets (unless you get there early enough for a billow bag).

Tickets are €5 and available online here or at the gate, with the movie actually starting when the sun goes down.

And with a sizzling 26C forecast for Friday – well, we’ll see you there.

It comes as it was recently revealed that there are plans to bring the box-office smash to Broadway.

While The Greatest Showman divided critics, audiences were head over heels for the story – even months after it first landed in  cinemas.

Yes, after its release in December, the movie made more than €1million every week until March and held tough in box offices around the globe well into April.

The Sun reports a musical adaption of the hugely popular show is in the works, with news of the movie moving to the stage a hot topic of conversation for those at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year.
