Overview

If you're going to watch a horror movie this Halloween, you may as well do so while you're splashing around in a pool. That's what's on the bill at Brisbane's returning outdoor cinema pop-up, with Float-In Cinema back with a Halloween 2024 edition. Returning to W Brisbane, it's taking over the riverside hotel's WET Deck for three nights in October, pairing swim-in movies with food and cocktails.

Screening across Monday, October 28–Wednesday, October 30, this excuse to see a horror-themed flick in a pool while downing drinks costs $130 per person, which includes a floating bed, a snack box, unlimited popcorn, and your choice of either a glass of bubbles or a cocktail upon arrival. You'll have to buy the rest of your beverages on top, but they will be delivered to you on floating trays.

If you're keen, you might want to get in quick, as there are limited seats available per session — and this unique cinema always sells out. As for what you'll be watching this time, get ready to get spooked out by Hocus Pocus, the 2020 version of The Witches and the 90s big-screen take on The Addams Family.

Arrivals are at 6pm each night, with the films starting at 7pm. Yes, you'll want to wear your togs, as you can hop into the water, not just float on top of it.

The snack boxes include Moreton Bay bug rolls, truffle salami, house-marinated olives, grilled vegetables with pesto focaccia, chocolate truffles, passionfruit meringue tartlets and more. And the cinema's special cocktail is called Spooky Feels, costs $24, and features vodka, strawberry liqueur, grape spirit, lychee, cherry and soda.
