Overview

Sunset Cinema only burst onto Brisbane's movie-going scene in 2018, but it's making its presence known. After returning this past autumn, the outdoor event is coming back for a second time this year with a spring fling — and bringing a heap of ace movies along with it.

From Thursday, October 2 to Saturday, November 16, you'll be able to sit outside at the Mt Coot-tha Botanical Gardens, train your eyes at the big screen and get viewing. The season kicks off with Rocketman, then zooms through everything from new hits to old favourites. Step back five decades with Quentin Tarantino's star-studded Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, get your action fix with Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw, sing along to the Beatles thanks to Yesterday or head to the African savannah with The Lion King remake. On the retro front, you can catch a double of Mean Girls and Clueless, or the rom-com duo Bridget Jones' Diary and Notting Hill — or opt for Dirty Dancing, 10 Things I Hate About You or Love Actually.

A heap of flicks that'll be in cinemas soon are also on the bill, including Ad Astra, Gemini Man, Good Boys, Zombieland: Double Tap, Joker and a screening of IT: Chapter Two on Halloween (naturally).

Pack a picnic to take with you — or, if you'd rather grab something while you're there, expect nachos, pork subs, tacos, chilli dogs and more, plus the usual ice creams, lollies and popcorn, and a drinks range from Young Henrys and Grant Burge Wines.
