Auckland Council’s FREE Movies in Parks is back in 2025!
From 21 February to 15 March, we’re putting on a FREE movie under the stars for the whole neighbourhood.
Pack a picnic or grab a bite from one of the food trucks and enjoy the pre-movie entertainment. Then settle in with friends and whānau to watch The War with Grandpa, Wonka, Coco, The Mountain and more. PLUS we’ve got something special lined up but it’s a surprise; just check back here on 1 March. There’s something for everyone, so start planning your summer now.
Don't forget, Movies in Parks events are FREE to attend — no tickets required.
