itison Drive-In Movies Christmas returns to Loch Lomond Shores for its 12th year, delivering 11 days of Christmas favourites including two weekends from Fri 12th – Wed 24th Dec.

This year brings back all-time favourites including 8 screenings of Elf plus, Home Alone and The Grinch, and adds two new titles for 2025: The Santa Clause and The Muppet Christmas Carol.
On the ground, expect gourmet street food including Loop & Scoop churros (Belgian or vegan chocolate sauce), SMSH BRGR’s premium smash burgers made with Rodger’s Butchers beef, and Dirty Bird’s buttermilk chicken; plus hot dogs, pizza, waTle fries, hot & cold drinks, popcorn and sweets.
