Hawthorn’s much-loved Lido Cinemas is celebrating its 10th birthday with a nostalgic throwback: $5 tickets to all general sessions all week long. From 7–13 August, cinephiles can catch everything from recent releases to cult classics for just a fiver—on the big screen and in Dolby Atmos elegance.
Opened in mid‑2015 on Glenferrie Road, Lido revitalised a historic space to offer an art-house meets boutique multiplex experience. Now visual treats and retro vibes meet unbeatable pricing as part of their birthday bash.
For the anniversary, Lido has also curated a Ten‑Film Birthday Retrospective, showcasing highlights from the past decade.
Expect films like The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Moonlight, Hereditary, Lilo & Stitch and more – all priced at just $5 per ticket. There’s even special combos: medium popcorn and drink for $10, and a $5 Billy Van Creamy choc top to sweeten the deal.
A beloved fixture of Melbourne’s cinema scene, Lido blends art-house programming with blockbuster showings, plus a rooftop cinema bar and intimate design. Their 10th birthday celebration is a standout week of old favourites, film festival picks and cinematic celebrations -without breaking the bank
Lido Cinema is at 675 Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn. For tickets and session times, visit lidocinemas.com.au.
