Summer may be drawing to a close, but things are just beginning to heat up in Perth and Adelaide with the return of Ben & Jerry’s Openair Cinemas. Australia’s favourite outdoor cinema returns to East Perth’s Ozone Reserve on the corner of Riverside Drive, and Adelaide Terrace from March 7th to April 2nd, 2017.
If you’re looking for a romantic, sunset filled evening for date night, drama and laughs for a girl’s night out or some family fun, Ben & Jerry’s Openair Cinemas is a must-do to add to your list this summer. Featuring a wide range of movies and a smorgasbord of food and drink to keep your taste buds tantalized, you’ll be entertained from start to finish.
The event, which saw Australians consuming over 160,000 scoops of ice cream last year, will be open from Tuesday to Sunday throughout the season with a packed itinerary of quirky comedies, retro classics, award-winning features, new releases and cult classics.
