Located in the heart of Chinatown, this iconic cinema has been operating for over 100 years. Settle into a deck chair under the stars, with the occasional flit of a bat or distant rumble of a plane overhead, as you tuck into popcorn and wait for the movie to begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stepping through the rustic, weathered tin entrance, the foyer showcases a collection of old photos and artifacts that tell the story of this beloved cinema, which first opened its doors in 1916. If you\u2019re interested in learning more about the venue&#8217;s history, pop in at 11 am to join the daily audio tour (Monday \u2013 Friday, $5 ticket, no bookings required).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sun Pictures offers two screenings daily, featuring a mix of the latest box office hits and timeless classics. Tickets can be purchased online or at the door, so arrive 30 minutes early to grab a prime seat and stock up on snacks and drinks from the kiosk, or you are welcome to bring takeaway dinners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tip: while the deck chairs form part of the cinema\u2019s rustic charm, bring a cushion or rug for some extra padding and comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo: Tourism Western Australia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":981,"template":"","categories":[99],"activity-type":[113,100,111],"time-of-year":[107,105,104,106],"class_list":["post-972","events","type-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-attractions","activity-type-accessible-facilities","activity-type-kid-friendly","activity-type-romantic","time-of-year-autumn","time-of-year-spring","time-of-year-summer","time-of-year-winter"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
