Spring has arrived, and with it comes the smell of fresh popcorn as starlight screenings return to Lido's Rooftop Cinema in Hawthorn. Perched atop the Glenferrie Road picture house, the outdoor screen will once again light up with a selection of new release movies in the open air — from Friday, October 22, aka the earliest the cinema can reopen after Melbourne's latest lockdown.
The 2021–22 Lido on the Roof season kicks off with sneak-peek screenings of tweet-to-film effort Zola, plus sessions of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Nitram, Free Guy and The Last Duel.
Also on the bill: Halloween showings of the OG Scream and the new Candyman, Marvel's newbie Eternals, Bond flick No Time to Die and Palme d'Or winner Titane, with more titles set to be added over spring and summer.
Always a hot ticket, sessions sell out quickly here — if you need any more motivation to get booking.
