This summertime will be pandatime, as Wollongong is treated to a free outdoor screening of Kung Fu Panda on a giant five-metre screen on Saturday, January 21 in Fairy Meadow.

Hosted by One Agency JD Property Agents in Fairy Meadow, the free community event will give young and old a great night out nearing the end of the school holidays.

Come dressed as one of the characters from the movie or bring along a favourite Kung Fu Panda toy.

One Agency JD Property Agents proprietor Joanne Danckwardt said the “movie under the stars” experience was designed to be a free event to give back to the community.

“As parents ourselves, we know that nearing the end of the school holidays, you’re often looking for things to do to entertain the kids,” she said. “This is a nice way for families and friends to come together without any added expense.”

The school holiday event will be held at Guest Park in Fairy Meadow at the Balgownie Road entrance. Patrons can arrive from 7pm, with screening of the movie from 8pm just as dusk hits. Fairy Meadow Rotary Club will provide a barbecue to raise funds for community projects.

Bring a picnic rug or folding chairs, your friends and family, and enjoy an outdoor cinema experience.

When Should You Arrive at Guest Park?

The movie night will be held on Saturday, January 21. While the movie starts at 8pm, come along from 7pm to give yourself time to set up, grab something to eat from the Fairy Meadow Rotary Club barbecue and find your friends.

What Should I Bring To Kung Fu Panda?

You’ll be experiencing the outdoors, so we suggest you bring along:

  • A picnic blanket, pillow or folded chairs to avoid having to sit on the grass.
  • If it’s forecast to be a bit chilly, bring along a blanket or oversized hoodie to keep yourself warm
  • In case the mozzies are out, insect repellent is a good idea
  • If you’re not planning on taking advantage of the food stalls provided, you can bring your own food and drink.

What Is The Cost?

This is a free community event for family and friends to enjoy. We know that nearing the end of the school holidays parents, grandparents and carers are looking for something to do with the kids. This is a great way to entertain the kids without the added cost.

Will Food and Drinks Be Available?

We have organised for the Fairy Meadow Rotary Club to set up a barbecue to allow you to purchase food and drinks on the night. While we encourage you to support the Rotary Club and their fundraising efforts by purchasing food, you are welcome to pack your own picnic to bring along too.

How Do I Get To Guest Park, Fairy Meadow?

Guest Park is located in Fairy Meadow. From the Princes Highway, navigate onto Balgownie Road. Parking is available near the Guest Park Soccer Fields. There are also bus stops along Balgownie Road. Check bus timetables for running times for that night.

What Happens If The Weather Isn’t Kind?

In the case of inclement weather, the movie will be postponed to another date. We will make this decision by 3pm on the day and announce it on our Facebook page. Please be sure to follow the page to keep updated on the day.
