Overview

Sunset Cinema is no stranger to St Ives Showground, screening flicks there late in 2021 and early in 2022. For its new season from Friday, December 9—Saturday, January 28, the openair cinema still boasts the same main attraction, too: watching movies under the stars.

Whether you're planning a cosy date night or an easy group hang outdoors, there'll be something on the bill for you — kicking off with box-office behemoth Top Gun: Maverick, and spanning plenty of new and recent titles as well. If you haven't yet given Black Panther: Wakanda Forever a spin, or entered Strange World, or gotten twisty thrills from Don't Worry Darling, they're all on the lineup.

Other highlights include Black Panther: Wakanda Forever; a heap of festive flicks leading into Christmas, such as Elf, Love Actually, Home Alone and The Nightmare Before Christmas; and three dog-focused films in January, spanning Marley & Me, Scooby-Doo and 101 Dalmatians.

BYO picnics are encouraged here, but the event is fully licensed, so alcohol can only be purchased onsite. Didn't pack enough snacks? There'll be hot food options, plus plenty of the requisite movie treats like chips, chocolates, lollies and popcorn.
