March - Event Junior
The top dogs at Event Cinemas saw a problem and have created a solution. Knowing how restless under 8s can be in a cinema, they are testing Event Junior at Macquarie Events Cinemas: a playground to give kids an opportunity to let all that energy out. Kids can play before, during the 10 minute intermission or after the movie for $5. And, if your child loves it, you can even hire the space out for a party! They are also trialing bean bags and a special kids menu to refine the cinema experience for kids.
