Moonlight Cinema, Australia's largest outdoor cinema, is set to return for its 29th season from late November 2024.

The event, hosted by cinema and hospitality group EVT and cinema advertising firm Val Morgan, will be held across five parkland locations in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth, offering a range of sponsorship opportunities for brands.
