This new season’s incredible movie line-up features Oscar-winning masterpieces, like “Everything Everywhere All At Once” and “Avatar: The Way of the Water”, and the highly anticipated international movie premier of “Greatest Days”, a movie based on the musical by the iconic boyband Take That. You can also expect a number of Blockbuster hits like “Interstellar”, classic feel-good films like “Bright Jones’s Diary” and “Mamma Mia!”, as well as a selection of local gems including “Anita”, “A Guilty Conscience” and “Table for Six”.

Expanded Food And Drink Offerings At The Grounds

No movie night is complete without good food. Continuing its collaboration with BaseHall, you’ll be able to dine on a diverse selection of vendors from the multi-concept food hall including Bengal Brothers, Co Thanh, Wow Burger, Smoke & Barrell, Mashi no Mashi and more. Be sure to keep an eye out on The Grounds’ social media channels for news on exclusive, limited-time menus. This year, The Grounds also adds Black Sheep’s Gelato Messina to the mix, offering an indulgent dessert selection to satisfy your sweet tooth.

As for drinks, you’ll be spoilt for choice with the options from partners Stella Artois, Monkey47, Mumm Champagne and Sainte-Marguerite Rose Wine. Sip on your drinks around the elevated pre-theatre area and take them back to your pod when the movie starts. Cocktails, beer, wine, coffee, juice and more will be available, as well as plenty of popcorn.

Order food and drinks to your pod via the ordering app accessible by the QR code on your table or directly at the bar.
