Newcastle Permanent’s Cinema Under the Stars program is set to return to The Entrance early next year.
On show will be the new film Wonka (PG 2023), but there will be no need for a golden ticket – this family-friendly event will be free to attend.
Newcastle Permanent Chief Distribution Officer Paul Juergens said there would be plenty of fun on offer again this year before the film began at sundown.
“Our free Cinema Under the Stars events have been a staple within the community for more than 15 years, which is something we are incredibly proud of as a customer-owned organisation,” he said.
“This year’s events are set to be jam-packed with local music, good food and fun activities before we settle in to enjoy a family-favourite flick.
“The adventures of Willy Wonka and his magical chocolate factory have been a childhood favourite for more than 60 years, so it is fantastic to see the characters come to life again.
“This year’s film is set to ignite your sweet tooth, so pack your favourite snacks, gather your loved ones and join us for a wonderful evening under the stars.”
Cinema Under the Stars will take place in Memorial Park, The Entrance, on Saturday, February 1, from 5.30pm.
It will be an alcohol-free event.
