NIGHT OWLS FILM FESTIVAL IS A HOOT

The third and final weekend of Little Night Owls Kids Film Festival is upon us, showcasing an amazing array of film from 80’s, 90’s and 00’s all for FREE at Sydney’s Darling Quarter.

The Festival brings with it a full program of films for kids, families and the young at heart. With a range of genres spanning sci-fi mind-bogglers and animated treasures, kids and adults alike will be able to perch themselves in the beautiful surrounds of one of the city's most exciting precincts and enjoy thrilling open-air cinema absolutely FREE.

From Princess Bride, to the thrilling Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon there are films for one and all.

Each night of the festival will be structured into two and sometimes three films. First up, there will be a selection from the Little Big Shots program at 6:30pm. Little Big Shots is Australia’s major children’s short film festival and features the best in local and international shorts, some of which have actually been created by talented kid filmmakers.

Each night before the sun goes down, audiences will also be treated to a vibrant mix of live entertainment from 5.30-6.30pm. So get down early to nab a good spot, relax on a colourful picnic rug and have a little boogie with the kids to some live music before the movies start!

There are plenty of delicious food options nearby at Darling Quarter, so treat yourself and the kids to some pad thai from Nok Nok Thai Eating House, or a juicy steak straight from the grill at Stacks Taverna and Bar, before finishing up with a traditional Italian gelato from Meno Diciotto. Something a little more exciting than the typical cinema choc-top!
