๐ŸŽฌ Laughs, Local Finds & Good Times with Friends โ€“ Pomona's got it all - heritage charm, a 1920s silent film theatre, country markets, a railway gallery, and a mellow mead stop to wrap it up! A waitlist is building! If you missed out, be sure to RSVP to the Waitlist - if enough interest continues, a 3rd Pomona day might just be on the cards!

Let's step into a day unlike any other - where old world charm meets good company and a few surprises along the way.
Our adventure takes us north to the Sunshine Coast hinterland, where the real star of the show is the Majestic Theatre in Pomona - a vintage gem that's been delighting audiences since the 1920's. During WWII, it screened films six nights a week for Australian and American troops, with locals queuing up outside (and sometimes even hurling tomatoes if they missed out on a seat!) Today, it's the only theatre in the world that still screens silent films with live musical accompaniment, just as they did a century ago.
The perfect day to step away from the usual and enjoy something truly unique - with friends and a touch of vintage flair.
