Pop-up Cinema coming to Tatura Park this May

Greater Shepparton City Council is excited to offer a new Covid-safe big screen experience to the region with a pop-up Tatura Drive-in Cinema.

Taking over Tatura Park on Saturday 8 May at 7pm, families can drive in and enjoy a screening of Frozen II from the comfort of their cars at no charge.

Popcorn, drinks and food will be available to purchase on the evening.

Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor Councillor Kim O'Keeffe said covid has seen a surge in popularity of outdoor cinemas.

"Navigating through the covid restrictions over the past year has seen us deliver events in new innovative ways such as live streaming events however it has also seen the return of some classic activities such as the Drive-in Cinema," Cr O'Keeffe said.

"Heading to the movies was one of the many things we had to go without last year and as restrictions eased the return of drive-in cinemas became a family favourite again. We are thrilled to be adding this event for the community to enjoy and also to go out and visit Tatura and experience the Many Great Things our small towns offer to the region."

To ensure our event attendees are covid-safe movie goers will need to check in via QR code on arrival and have to stay within the parameter of their vehicle for the duration of the film, except for moving around to purchase food and drinks or use the toilets.

The movie's audio track will be streamed through an FM radio transmitter, which attendees will receive frequency information on the night.
