Summer Sunset Movies

Summer is the perfect time for family fun, with free Summer Sunset Movies coming to a park near you. Manukau City Council’s Arts and Parks teams have organised a great series of outdoor movies, with screenings being held across the city in February.

Laughs, action, adventure and even a bit of romance will be in the air, with a range of family-friendly titles set to hit the big screen.

Leisa Siteine, Group Manager of Manukau Arts, is excited about bringing these events to Manukau for the first time. “The combination of a great line-up of films and our beautiful local parks makes for a perfect way to spend a summer’s evening.”

Bring along your picnic blanket and basket and settle in for an evening of entertainment for the whole family.
