“Down by the sea, yeah… on a blanket with my baby, is where I’ll be…” ~ The Drifters, 1964
Question? What do you get when you offer up a big screen movie, drop 250 tons of sand, create 200 barrels of perfect popcorn and gourmet pizza…PLUS 130 cushy beds on the Sydney night-time landscape?
Answer! A fabulous night out at the movies with the Sydney skyline as your backdrop! Simply Magical
A Private bed, & intimate nighttime fun under the stars
This is where Mov’in Bed™ stands alone in Sydney’s summer cinema scene. While a handful of other outdoor film sights provide chairs-by-the-row, or communal picnic spaces on a grassy knoll, with this Mov’inBed ™ outfit, you score a queen or king-size bed that’s yours for the night. Pillows, doonas, a bedside table, and privacy. It’s intimate, it’s comfortable, and yes, couples tend to get very cosy under the blankets.
The format is simple: arrive early, claim your bed on the sand, watch the sunset over Barangaroo, order chef-made pizzas and burgers delivered to your bedside, sip cocktails with your toes in the sand, then lie back as the film takes over. One ticket, one location, dinner and drinks, and movie sorted, it’s the easiest night out to organise.
Sunset, skyline, popcorn, and a bed – Sydney’s most indulgent picture show.
Restaurant-quality dining, prepared in front of you, delivered to your bed.
Behind the beds sits an open kitchen where chefs cook every order fresh. Each pizza is made, then delivered straight to your bedside. It’s not cinema snack food, we’re talkin’ (NY City Pizza-talk here!) restaurant-level dining with chef-made pizzas, gourmet burgers and share plates. Plus cocktails and wine service, all without leaving your bed on the sand.
Comfy for everyone, including our fluffy friends
The beds change everything. Suddenly, outdoor cinema works for people who couldn’t handle sitting on grass for two hours. Couples can actually cuddle properly rather than awkwardly lean on each other. Parents get a rare night out where they can lie down and relax – do you remember how it feels? Friends can share a king bed and sprawl out together. And for the first time, dog owners don’t have to leave their pets at home, bring them along, and they’ll get their own little bed next to you!
Accessible luxury for all Sydneysiders
Tickets start at just $12 for sand positions (bring your own blanket), with queen-size bed experiences from $45 per person and VIP packages at $75, including sparkling wine, butler service, unlimited gourmet popcorn, and premium viewing. Beds accommodate 2-3 guests. Mov’in Bed has held ticket prices for four years, keeping this experience accessible to everyone.
Location! Location! Location! Smack dab in the Heart of the City, and easy-peasy to reach
Mov’in Bed™ is cleverly located in Barangaroo’s Harbour Park, Sydney. A short walk to public transport connects it: the Metro, Sydney ferries, buses, and trains.
