They say the best things in life are free. Well, good news – here's a completely free and totally fun Gold Coast event: 'Movies Under The Stars'.
Each weekend from now through until March, a family-friendly movie will be screened, for FREE, in a selected outdoor location on the Gold Coast. Held primarily in parks, you are invited to bring a camping chair, beanbag or picnic blanket and lay out under the stars for an evening of fun with friends and family.
Most of the venues have coffee and food for purchase, or you can pack your own picnic to bring with you. Below is a list of the upcoming screenings and locations for Movies Under the Stars.
