Open Air Cinema For Families

Bring your friends and family to the Airlie Beach Foreshore for the upcoming outdoor cinema screening, this Friday, April 14, from 6pm. Showcasing a double feature, this evening will be fun for the whole family, with various food vans offering delicious meals and treats throughout the evening, to keep families well fed.

The first film is ‘Shark Tale’, which follows the story of a bluestreak cleaner wrasse, Oscar, as he struggles to become ‘top of the reef’ and becomes tan gled in messy gangster business.

This is followed by ‘Oddball’, an Australian film about a chicken farmer who trains his dog, Oddball, to protect a penguin sanctuary from foxes, saving the small town in the process.

From 4pm, the Foreshore will also have various pre-event activities on offer, for families to enjoy prior to the screening.

The Whitsunday Lions Cruise Ship Markets are also being held on the Airlie Beach

Foreshore on Friday, April 14, from 8am.

So, make a day of it at the Airlie Beach Foreshore, exploring the Cruise Ship Markets, before enjoying the sunset with free, fun, family entertainment.

Don’t forget your picnic blanket!

In the event of poor weather, the outdoor cinema will be postponed.

Please note, this is an alcohol-free event.

WHEN: Friday, April 14, from 4pm TICKETS: Free as a hand-picked host for the new comedy-driven footy show, Up The Guts, on Fox Sports following on from Friday Night Footy.

The regularly touring humourist will be joined on the Sports Bar Stage by Andrew Barnett, the Fox-Sports-famous comedian and presenter on Sunday Night with Matty Johns and The Back Page.

Barnett, with his relaxed, affable style which belies a razor sharp wit, has a comedic ability brimming with insightful observations and witty anecdotes – he’s an absolute crowd favourite wherever he performs.

Comedy Festival – he’s ready to transform you through laughter.

“The world is full of self-styled gurus, Svengalis, mind coaches and horrific influencers. Are you sick of the world? Are you tired of your own bulls**t?” Mooney said.

“I’m here to help you to quit, embrace your inner loser and win at life.”

The Airlie Beach Hotel will turn into a barrel of laughs courtesy of one of the country’s top comedians in May – don’t miss your chance for a festival of laughter.
