Catch a flick right along Queen Street in the vibrant Aotea Square precinct. This is one of the best cinemas for a dinner-and-movie combo, with restaurants and fast-casual dining options all within easy walking distance. Such options are akin to the movie-watching experience at Event Cinemas Queen Street. With three cinema options to choose from, you’ll be spoilt for choice.
Movie-goers can keep things classic in the standard cinema, where you can up the ante with a double or single daybed option (for select movies). Seeking a thrill? Awaken your senses in front of a gigantic IMAX screen – a must-try for dizzying thrillers and blockbusters. Going the indulging route? Go for the Gold Class treatment with reclining chairs, an intimate cinema setting and wait staff who bring in your refreshments – you can even schedule mid-movie snacks.
For those with children, be sure to leave some time for arcade games in the PLAY zone. Plus, you’ll need to take the translucent rocket-shaped lift to get around the mammoth complex – the kids will love it!
Getting there Te huarahi ki reira
Event Cinemas Queen Street is a 15-minute walk from Britomart Train Station and the ferry terminal. If driving, you’ll find the closest parking at the Civic Car Park.
