Free films at Backlot!

One of Southbank’s best-kept secrets, The Backlot Studios is hosting a series of free screenings at its exclusive cinema space at 65 Haig St.

Directors Mark D’Angelo and Tony Ianiro are inviting Southbank residents to come along to watch a range of new and classic films in an exclusive setting, all by simply emailing ahead to RSVP!

With many residents unaware that they are within walking distance to their own cinema, Mr D’Angelo said the screenings were a great chance to get a taste of Australia’s first private cinema and event space.

“So many Southbank locals would not have had the chance to see our facility so we decided to put on a ‘Guilty Pleasure’ screening series to give people a chance to see the space,” he said. “They are films that we love, which many people are also yet to see on the big screen. Best of all it is free!”

The 72-seat cinema (with 24 onsite car spaces for guests to use) will host a number of free screenings each month until December of a range of new and loved films.

The space hosts everything from film screening nights to birthday parties and corporate events.
