Perth’s iconic Rooftop Movies returns on October 8, 2024, transforming the City of Perth Parking Roe Street Car Park into a unique summer cinema experience. Packed with Halloween classics, nostalgic hits, fresh blockbusters, and local flavours, this season is shaping up to be a must-visit for movie lovers.
Rooftop yoga, food & drinks
This season, it’s not just about the films. Start your evening with a relaxing Rooftop Yoga session while soaking up panoramic city views at sunrise or sunset. Then, fuel up with mouth-watering burgers from Benedict’s Burgerbuns, or head to The Candy Bar, where local WA wines and spirits are on offer alongside your usual cinema treats. Don’t forget a brew from Gage Roads Brewing Co. to enjoy with your film. Whether you’re after yoga, good eats, or a great flick, Rooftop Movies delivers the full experience under Perth’s summer sky.
Horror & thrillers
For the horror lovers, this year’s lineup is packed with chills. Alien Romulus will deliver intergalactic terror, while Maxxxine offers slasher thrills. Classic horrors like The Shining and Scream will keep you on edge, and for a dose of horror-comedy, Shaun of the Dead is an unmissable zom-com. Don’t forget modern gems like Get Out and Jennifer’s Body, which bring socially charged scares and dark humour to the big screen. It’s the perfect mix of creepy, thrilling, and fun for the ultimate fright night.
Blockbusters
If you’re craving high-octane action, Deadpool & Wolverine will bring laughs and superhero mayhem, while Joker: Folie À Deux offers a deeper psychological thriller with a musical twist. Twisters guarantees epic storm-chasing drama, and Beetlejuice 2 resurrects everyone’s favourite mischievous ghost for more supernatural fun. The season also features Blink Twice, a fresh blockbuster that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Rooftop Movies has all the thrills and big-screen magic you need this summer.
Nostalgic classics
Get ready to relive the best of the ‘90s and early 2000s with a lineup of nostalgic classics. From Tom Hanks in BIG to the spooky charm of The Nightmare Before Christmas, Hocus Pocus, and Practical Magic, these films will transport you back in time. Add in Tim Burton’s iconic Edward Scissorhands and the interactive fun of The Rocky Horror Picture Show—costumes, singalongs, and all—and you’ve got a night of pure feel-good vibes.
Family films
Looking for a family-friendly night out? Runt, a homegrown Western Australian production, is a heartfelt adventure full of friendship, perfect for kids and adults alike. Inside Out 2 also brings animated joy, continuing the emotional journey inside Riley’s mind with laughter and heartwarming moments that both kids and adults will love.
