Free film and food celebration at The Gordon

Films and food abound this weekend, when The Gordon Courtyard becomes a foodie-themed festival space for the free community event Feast And Flicks in The Courtyard.

Running from 4pm to 10pm on Saturday, October 11, the event will feature showings of Paul King’s Wonka at 4pm and 6pm and food-themed rom-com ‘No Reservations’ at 8pm.

The transformation into an outdoor cinema will be supported by a range of delicious food and drink options from The Gordon’s hospitality students

The culinary offerings include hot and cold food, classic movie fare such as popcorn and ice-creams and hot and cold drinks including a fully licensed bar.

The Gordon’s director of engagement and partnerships Carley Brennan encouraged community members to come for the food and stay for the films.

“This event is about more than great food and film, it’s about showcasing the talent of our students and bringing the community together in a really fun, relaxed way,” she said.

“Guests can settle into deck chairs or bean bags under the stars, and if the weather is cool, we encourage everyone to bring along a blanket to stay cosy.

“It’s going to be a special night of food, film and connection right here in the heart of Geelong.”

Feast and Flicks in the Courtyard is being delivered by The Gordon alongside the City of Greater Geelong’s ROAM Festival.
