All headphones will need to be returned at the end of the screening or you may be charged a replacement fee.

– Layering up or bringing a blanket if it’s looking like a chilly night.
– Insect repellent to keep those mozzies away!
– If you haven’t hired any seating then you are more than welcome to bring you own rugs, pillows, lawn chairs ect. Just be aware that taller chairs will be restricted to the back of the grounds so that everyone can see the screen.
