South Bank Christmas Cinema
Pack a picnic and enjoy Christmas movies from your childhood under the stars.
Overview
Last-minute shopping, over-indulging at celebratory shindigs, and pretending not to be annoyed about receiving another pair of socks: they're all a part of every Christmas. For kids and adults alike, so is many a seasonal-themed movie. If it has Santa or Christmas in the title, it's optimal viewing at this time of year.
The folks at South Bank certainly think so, and have thrown together their yearly Christmas Cinema Series brimming with merriment. These free films aren't just for families. Any Yuletide movie held under Brisbane's starry skies and by the water at River Quay Green at this summery time of the season is perfect for, well, everyone.
Pack a picnic and enjoy double features every night from Friday, December 14 to Sunday, December 23. The familiar but still festive and fun lineup includes everything fromthe 80s stylings of Gremlins to the classic treat that is Miracle on 34th Street. That's not all, with Elf, The Polar Express, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Home Alone and more among a positively jovial and jolly selection of childhood classics gracing the waterside big screen.
