Chinese New Year Beanbag Cinema
BYO dumplings.
Overview
From rooftops in Hawthorn to convents in Abbotsford and the sun-kissed shores of St Kilda Beach, Melbourne is a city obsessed with outdoor cinemas. It's little wonder, then, that the organisers of this year's Chinese New Year festivities wanted to get in on the action. Popping up for one night only in Chinatown Square, Chinese cinema lovers will be able to sink into a beanbag and enjoy an evening of specially curated Asian short films. The screen flickers to life at dusk, which should translate to about 8.30pm. BYO popcorn...although dumplings would probably be more appropriate.
