$5 Tickets for Lido Cinemas' Tenth Birthday
Catch a new or classic movie for cheap for a week to celebrate ten years of this Hawthorn cinema.
Overview
When Lido Cinemas launched in mid-2015, it do so by offering $5 tickets for a day. Consider the Hawthorn picture palace's ten-year celebrations a blast from the past, then.
To mark a decade of screening flicks to film fans, the Glenferrie Road venue is doing discounts, bringing back that $5 deal for a whole week. Catch a movie between Thursday, August 7–Wednesday, August 13, 2025 — other than attending special events — and that price is all that you'll pay.

More discounts apply if you're keen for something to eat or drink: there'll be $5 choc tops, plus $10 medium combos featuring popcorn and a drink. That means that you can get your film and snacks covered for less than the cost of a ticket at Lido's regular prices.
If you're thinking that it's the cinema's birthday but film lovers are the ones getting the presents, you're right. Here's another: a ten-year anniversary retrospective season across the week that's fittingly playing ten films from the past decade that Lido has been operating, all of which will only cost $5 to see. Starting with Mad Max: Fury Road and ending with Challengers, every one of them is exceptional.
