Audiences also can enjoy a stellar lineup of highly anticipated titles yet to be released such as The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, Anyone But You, Trolls Band Together and Taika Waititi’s Next Goal Wins.

As the holiday season approaches, Christmas classics will also be back to warm the hearts of audiences with timeless favourites like Home Alone, Elf, Love Actually and How the Grinch Stole Christmas screening across all Moonlight Cinema locations, presented by Telstra.
