Topless Cinema

Overview

Movie-loving Melburnians have a new place to get their flicks fix — for six Thursday evenings during MPavilion's current season, that is. The event announced last year that it was turning CBD car park Parkade into its hub to start 2021, and now it's unleashing a series of film screenings there as well. Even better: they're all free.

On February 4, 11 and 18, and again on March 4, 11 and 25, the Little Collins Street spot will be setting up a big screen, showing recent and classic movies, and also serving drinks from the onsite bar. Each session kicks off at 8pm, and you'll be heading up to level seven for this collaboration between MPavilion and Rooftop Cinema, which has been dubbed Topless Cinema.

As for what you'll be watching, the season starts with the delightful Jacques Tati comedy Playtime, then swoons over The Love Witch in the lead up to Valentine's Day. February's sessions close with award-winning Aussie drama Babyteeth, while March's begin with Tim Burton's gorgeous Edward Scissorhands. And, there's also Agnes Varda's masterful Cleo From 5 to 7, plus documentary Rams, about industrial designer Dieter Rams.
