What we’re about

Movies, Music and More Meetup Group is based in Canberra for those who share an interest or passion for a wide variety of cinema, music and cultural activities in a relaxed social environment.

(1). For movies, we offer a wide variety covering most genres, including Australian films, classics, cult movies, documentaries, film festivals, newly released and retrospective films, in addition to the latest blockbusters. 
Movie meetups are usually held in Civic due to its central location and close proximity to coffee shops, bars and restaurants for that pre or post movie get together.

For the major blockbusters, we offer the chance to see those movies in style, at Dendy Premium. In Canberra’s hot summer, there is the opportunity to enjoy cinema under the stars, with Sunset Cinema at the Australian National Botanic Gardens and Open-air Cinema on the foreshore of Lake Burley Griffin.

Other events include:

(2). Music meetups covering a wide range of music formats. These meetups may include choirs, classical music, indoor concerts, local bands and musicians, military bands, musicals, opera, orchestras, outdoor concerts, The Vinyl Lounge and major touring artists such as The Ten Tenors.

(3). More meetups including interesting or unique events at our Cultural Institutions (Australian War Memorial, Museum of Australian Democracy, National Gallery of Australia, National Library of Australia, National Museum of Australia, National Portrait Gallery, Questacon, Parliament House) or special events touring here. These meetups may include A Night at the Museum, Bangarra Dance Theatre, Behind The Lines Exhibition, Commonwealth to Kings Avenue (Bridge to Bridge) Walk, Enlighten Festival, Floriade, High Tea at the Hyatt Canberra, Lake Burley Griffin Cruises, Mulligan's Flat Wildlife Tours, Questacon By Night, Skyfire, The Bald Archies, The Wharf Revue and Tim the Yowie Man Ghost Tours and special events.

‘More’ meetups may also include day trips to local wineries, comedy nights, art exhibitions & brunch at the Canberra Museum and Gallery, fish & chips at Snapper on the Lake, premier dance performances, street theatre, trivia nights and visits to the National Zoo & Aquarium.

If you enjoy any of the following activities: a good film, art exhibitions, challenging yourself at trivia, day trips to local wineries, enjoying local attractions, finding out more about our history, going to the theatre, having a good laugh at a comedy night, having interesting conversations, learning something new, leisurely (light) exercise to stay fit and healthy, listening to live music, meeting new people, indoor and outdoor concerts, socialising with others, visiting our cultural institutions for exclusive exhibitions and special events on offer right here in the Nation's Capital, this group may be for you!
