Embrace the March Movie Magic at The Galileo Open Air Cinema!

The Galileo Open Air Cinema has entered the final 8 weeks of its summer season, and the enchanting movie magic continues to captivate Capetonian audiences. In proud partnership with Nedbank Private Wealth, the 12th season nears its end, promising an extraordinary cinematic experience featuring beloved classics and exciting new releases set against the stunning landscapes of Cape Town and the Cape Winelands.

This March, movie enthusiasts can look forward to a diverse line-up of screenings that cater to all, from the young to the young-at-heart, nature lovers, the hopeless romantics and lovers of the classics.

Kicking off the Easter holidays on 20th March at Kirstenbosch Garden, ‘The NeverEnding Story’ invites families for a magical outing as the school holidays unfold. The Galileo offers the perfect recipe for keeping children busy and entertained by combining the outdoors and beloved age-appropriate flicks. The always-hilarious ‘Pitch Perfect’ and the new addition of Shrek 2 on Easter Sunday at Battery Park at the V&A Waterfront ensures the holiday itinerary has a few highlights for the little ones.

Aptly timed with the noteworthy celebration of the International Day of Forests, ‘The Lorax’, a family-friendly adaptation of Dr. Seuss’s timeless tale, encourages audiences to immerse themselves in the marvels of nature with the adventures of a boy on a quest to win the heart of his crush.

From ‘schools out’ to ladies’ night, ‘Magic Mike’s Last Dance’ provides an excuse to gather the gals and enjoy an evening under the stars.

Catering specifically to fans of the Blockbuster biggies, Throwback Thursday presents an array of timeless classics throughout the month with old-time favourites like ‘Lord of the Rings,’ ‘The Godfather,’ and ‘Harry Potter.’

The Adam Sandler classic and audience-favourite ’50 First Dates’ is our featured Rom-Com highlight alongside other date-night must-see screenings on Saturdays throughout the Winelands.

Matthew Schulz, who runs the Galileo, shares his excitement: “The upcoming school holidays are a great time for families to experience the Galileo for the first time or as returning guests. We try to foster an open, fun, and safe environment for all our guests, where kids and parents alike can make new friends and relax outdoors. With one of our signature special screenings on Good Friday and another show on Easter Sunday, March promises a diverse range of entertainment for all. As we get set for the final stretch of our summer season, it’s a joy to welcome so many families, friend groups and dates as they create magical moments under the stars.”
