Outdoor Cinema Series Brings Community Together Post-Flood

As part of the ongoing recovery efforts following the October 2022 floods, Strathbogie Shire Council is proud to announce a free outdoor cinema series across three towns. This initiative aims to bring families together, strengthen community connections, and celebrate the resilience that has shaped our region’s recovery.

The outdoor cinema events will feature family-friendly films under the stars, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere for all ages. Each town will have its own unique experience.

Mayor, Cr Claire Ewart-Kennedy said the outdoor cinema series is about more than just entertainment—it’s about fostering connection and hope.

“These events provide a space for families and friends to come together, unwind, and enjoy something positive after such a challenging time.’ said Mayor, Cr Claire Ewart-Kennedy

“Recovering from a disaster isn’t just about rebuilding infrastructure—it’s about rebuilding connections. Events like these help strengthen the bonds within our towns and remind us that we are stronger together.

‘We want these events to be enjoyable for everyone. With free entry, great films, and fantastic food, there’s something for all ages to enjoy. Bring a blanket, grab a bite to eat, and settle in for a night of fun under the stars.’ She said.

The first event kicks off in Strathbogie on Thursday 20 February, followed by screenings in Nagambie and Euroa. Each event will begin at 7pm, with the movie beginning just after sunset.
