Haig Park Pickture Festival




The City Renewal Authority engaged Sweet Potato to enliven and re-engage the under-utilised Haig Park. In response, we created a unique outdoor cinematic experience that featured three cinema screens and a social hub. Surrounding a central food and wine hub, three cinemas ran a selection of retro-fun flicks. Blue, Yellow, and Red. Audio from two cinemas was transmitted via radio receivers attached to each seat.

The event opened at 4 p.m. each afternoon, with music accompanying food and drinks available until late. The three movies were screened simultaneously on three screens from 7:45 p.m. On Saturday night, the festival also hosted late-night screenings of R-rated sessions commencing at 10:15 p.m.
