You know summer's almost here in Sydney when openair cinemas start making big ol' announcements. Sydney's most visually stunning openair cinema, St George Openair Cinema, is back for the summer. Celebrating its 20th season this year, Sydney's beloved cinema with a million dollar view returns to Mrs Macquaries Point on Thursday, January 7 for a huge 40-night season until February 19.

The 2016 program, which will be fully announced in December this year, will see more than a dozen premiere and preview screenings, a selection of 2015’s best arthouse films, as well as the all-time favourite Christmas and New Year releases. There were more than 50,000 tickets sold last year in the first days of pre-sales in December, so you'd better be organised when tickets go on sale on December 7. Keeping their tried and true formula intact, St George Openair Cinema will return with their epic grandstand seating, with those insane views of the Harbour Bridge and Opera House which perpetually distract us from the 350 square metre cinema screen. Stupid beautiful Sydney.

Nosh-wise, there's plenty afoot from the cinema's culinary team, with menus yet to be announced for this year's program. Last year saw all the Miss Chu rice paper rolls and Love Supreme pizza you could wolf at one of the prettiest openair cinemas in the world, so you can expect a gloriously gourmet season down at Mrs Macquaries Point.

St George Openair Cinema 2016 runs January 7 to February 19. Tickets are on sale at 9am on December 7, 2015. Visit the website for updates, or follow them on Facebook and Twitter.
