Head along to the Tauranga waterfront for our much-loved, free Night Owl Cinema. This time we're screening not one, but two family classics, proudly supported by Tauranga City Council.

Make sure you are dressed for the cool evening air, bring something to sit on, and a blanket to keep cozy. Bring a picnic or grab a bite to eat from one of the many awesome local cafes and restaurants in the City. The movie will be on the Waterfront, right next door to our awesome destination playground. 

5.30pm Eddie the Eagle PG - 
Eddie the Eagle Trailer

7.30pm Cool Runnings PG - Cool Runnings Trailer

Please note: All Children must be accompanied by a supervisor. 

In the case of wet weather, this event will be cancelled. This will be announced via What's on Tauranga social media (Facebook and Instagram).

The entire two sessions will run from 5.30-9.30pm

Parking
Parking is free in the city centre after 5pm on weekdays and free all weekend. We suggest parking in the new Dive Crescent car park and starting the trail from there, or alternatively parking in the Spring Street or Elizabeth Street parking building. As it is a self-guided trail, you start from the closest kiwi to where you park. Find out more about city centre parking here.

Mobility parking
Mobility parks are located in all the parking buildings and on street. For more mobility parking options, check out the TCC website.

Bike Parking
If you are biking in, there is free bike parking at the Bikebox shelters located on the Strand opposite Hamilton Street and at 1 Devonport Road near Red Square. Each bike shelter provides weather protection for 10 bikes/scooters and are monitored by CCTV cameras.
