🎬 THAT’S A WRAP on our last drive‑in movie night! 🚗🍿

Huge thank you to EVERYONE who rolled in – you brought the energy, the snacks, and those cozy car setups. 🙌

Okay, we’ll admit… there were a few uh‑oh moments 😅 (tech hiccups, Mother nature not being kind and the sound from the FM 🎚️).
So – jokingly but honestly – sorry for any mini inconveniences. BUT we managed! And we definitely learned our lessons for next time. 😅📝

Now the real question…
Would you want another drive‑in movie at the end of this month?

👇 COMMENT the movie you’d love to watch (classic, horror, rom‑com, action – anything goes!)

Then keep an eye on our Stories – we’ll put up a POLL to finalise the date & movie vote. 🗳️🎥

Tag a friend you’d bring along! 👫🍿

🎬🚗 THE DRIVE-IN VIBE IS BACK! 🚗🎬

After the magic of our last event, we’re bringing the big screen back for another cosy winter night under the stars. ✨❄️

This time, we’re screening Five Feet Apart on 30th May at South New Brighton Domain — a beautiful story of love, distance, strength, and connection. 💙

With May being Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month, this movie carries an extra meaningful message, reminding us how powerful human connection can be, even when distance matters most.

Grab your spot before the car spaces fill up.

🕟 Gates open: 4:30pm
🎥 Movie starts: 5:30pm
📍 South New Brighton Domain

Bring your blankets, park up, tune in, grab some food, coffee, loaded fries and snacks, then settle in for a chilled winter drive-in experience. 🚘🍟☕

Limited car spaces available — don’t wait too long.
