Moonlight Cinema Sydney 2021–22
Watch everything from 'The Suicide Squad', 'Cruella' and 'Free Guy' to 'Dirty Dancing', 'Love Actually' and 'Home Alone' under the stars.
Overview
Sydney's picnic baskets have had quite the workout so far in 2021, but one of their biggest moments to shine is about to arrive for another year. When Moonlight Cinema sets up its outdoor screen in Centennial Park from early December, it's officially cheese, snack and openair movie-viewing season.
The end-of-year mainstay returns from Thursday, December 9–Sunday, April 3 with an impressive batch of films gracing its outdoor setup. Get ready to catch a heap of recent blockbusters, a smattering of brand new flicks and a lineup of Christmas movies. You can't run an openair cinema at the jolliest time of the year without the latter, obviously.
The Suicide Squad opens the bill, with the lineup including Cruella, Free Guy and Red Notice as well. Also screening: Edgar Wright's new movie Last Night in Soho, animated sequel The Boss Baby: Family Business, Disney newbie Encanto and the family-friendly Clifford the Big Red Dog.
Among the retro fare, The Greatest Showman and Dirty Dancing are on the program; it would't be a Moonlight Cinema season without them, either.
And, for your merry outdoor movie-watching pleasure, the Christmas selection includes Love Actually, The Holiday, Elf, The Grinch, Die Hard and Home Alone.
It's also worth remembering that Moonlight Cinema is BYO — and there'll be food, snacks, a bar and (if you'd like to pay for them) bean bags as well. And, in great news for movie-loving pooches, you can bring them along, too.
