Relive your favourite movie moments at one of these outdoor venues this summer.
Cape Town is bursting with fun and fabulous things to do, especially when the weather plays along. How does watching a flick under a starry sky sound?
During one of the lockdown levels (we’ve lost track), The Galileo introduced its Drive-In at various locations around Cape Town, allowing movie-goers to enjoy a safe, outdoors experience. Now, under the amended Level 3 regulations, the Drive-In is back, along with a VIP experience! With stringent hygiene measures and Covid-related safety regulations in place, visitors will be ensured of a secure outdoor experience while enjoying some much-needed escapism.
The Galileo Drive-in
Catch a silverscreen classic from the comfort – and safety – of your car. When you book your drive-in tickets, you’ll have the option to order food and drinks, which you can collect drive-through-style as you enter the venue. Park backwards, open the hatch and get comfortable with mattresses, cushions and blankets!
