Hot Tub Cinemas

Some would say there's nothing better than sitting back in one of Melbourne's iconic rooftop cinemas and sipping the night away with a summer cocktail in hand. Simply put, those people are chumps. Sitting there in their deck chairs, fully clothed, getting their own drinks from a bar that they walk to with their un-wrinkled legs. Fools! The future is here, and it's powered by hot jets of liquid happiness.

Hot Tub Cinema is exactly what it sounds like. From Friday, January 10, the top level of the multi-level carpark behind the Prince in St Kilda will be transformed into a unique cinema featuring two outdoor screens and 16 hot tubs. The pop-up space, designed by the same people who brought us The People's Market, will stand till February next year, and will feature some rowdy and hot-tub friendly flicks such as The Hangover, Superbad, and Dirty Dancing — for those that like their spa experience with a side-order of Swayze.

Doors open from 3pm for a sunny afternoon tipple, then the movies kick off from around 8.30pm. There's even full bar service straight to your spa for those that want to kick on into the night (everyone, obviously). Bookings can be taken by the tub, or separately... if you don't mind the idea of sitting in stranger juices for a couple of hours. Tickets are on sale now.

This event has been postponed until further notice. For updated information check the organiser's Facebook page.
