New Farm Six Cinemas

Brisbane


When those subtropical heavens open up, take refuge at New Farm's historic movie palace. Remodelled and restored, its state-of-the-art screening rooms show mostly mainstream new releases. Tuesday is popular with penny-pinching film buffs, with all tickets $12. If you're a student (with official student ID), head in on Thursday nights for even cheaper $7.50 tickets.
