Catch
an Outdoor Movie during Summer
During
summer in Perth, there is a feast of movies to watch outdoors at
various locations. So
pack a picnic and rug and enjoy a movie outdoors with a group of
friends. The weather can still be quite cool in the evenings, so
make sure you bring along a jumper to watch your movie under the
stars.
The
movies usually run from early December to middle of April depending
on the location. The cost of a movie ticket for an adult is around
$12 to $14. Concessions are usually also available.
For
Perth Festival films, tickets can be pre purchased from BOCS outlets
if you want to avoid possible queues.
