Top choice in Melbourne
Melbourne's original outdoor cinema hits the Royal Botanic Gardens from the end of November through March, screening current releases and retro classics. Bring a picnic hamper and booze, or buy some from cashless operators at the venue.
‘Gold Grass’ tickets ($40) include waitstaff service and a beanbag in the premium viewing area. Bring warm clothes to ward off the night-time chill. It's easiest and best to pre-purchase tickets online.
