Ben and Jerry’s Openair Cinema 2014
Just when you thought a choc-top at the movies couldn't get any better come the ultimate 'Sundae' Sessions.
Overview
Chunky Monkey, Clusterfluff, New York Super Fudge Chunk. These are just some of the more popular flavours of Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream, a leading cause of happiness around the world since 1978. While doctors in the future will no doubt tell me otherwise, we can’t think of many things better than gorging a giant tub of sweet, sweet ice-cream on a warm spring day, except for maybe getting some friends together and going to the movies.
Well, it turns out Ben & Jerry’s can help us there as well. Staring on September 28 and running until early November, Ben & Jerry’s Openair Cinema, erected on Rainforest Green, South Bank, will combine recent releases like Begin Again, Magic in the Moonlight and Guardians of the Galaxy with some more nostalgic picks, including Point Break,The Princess Bride and a sing-along screening of Grease.
Festivities start daily at 5.30pm on school nights and 5pm on Friday and Saturday, with two screenings squeezed in most nights and plenty of time to suss out the bar and stock up on snacks. Best of all are the Sunday ‘Sundae’ Sessions, which kick off an hour earlier with additional music, games on the lawn and free Ben & Jerry’s for all.
