Outdoor screenings happening in Auckland

The Auckland Council’s Movies in Parks series is back. The alcohol free, smoke free and zero waste events bring 26 FREE movies to different parks all across Auckland this summer. When the sun comes down, the movie lights up the park.

The other free Auckland outdoor cinema, Silo Cinema, has its schedule up too. Located on the corner of Jellicoe and Beaumont Street on Wynyard Quarter, Silo Cinema plays host to films and markets.

The American Express Openair Cinema is also back, a limited-time cinema located in Western Springs next to Auckland Zoo. American Express Card Members get to enjoy VIP perks and ticket discounts.
