'Mamma Mia' Sing-Along

Overview

You can finally take those lung-belting ABBA sing-along sessions from the car to the next level — by taking them to the drive-in. On Saturday, May 9 and Sunday, May 10, Yatala's resident automobile-friendly cinema is dialling up the volume for a Mother's Day weekend ABBA-thon — which promises the ultimate socially distant vocal workout for fans of the Swedish pop superstars and their iconic tunes.

The main attraction: a screening of the ABBA-filled musical flick Mamma Mia!, where punters can jam along to favourites like 'Dancing Queen', 'SOS' and 'Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!'. Head along at 8.30pm on Saturday night or 6pm on Sunday evening. And, given the occasion, you might want to bring your mum.

As always, your night at the flicks will cost $35 per car, which covers up to six people. If you choose to wear sparkly jumpsuits, well, that's obviously up to you.

Since reopening over the Labour Day long weekend, the venue has implemented some new rules and procedures to keep everyone safe and healthy. They include contactless entry, hand sanitiser stations, restricting capacity to 50 percent or less, only making restrooms available for emergencies, and limiting the candy bar to ten patrons at a time. Keeping in line with social-distancing requirements, cinephiles are asked to only attend with folks they live with, or with one person who doesn't live in the same household.

If you're choosing to go out and support local businesses, have a look at the latest COVID-19 advice and social-distancing guidelines from the Department of Health.
