Behind the Scenes

Lights, popcorn… action! For more than 50 years, Nelson Bay Cinema has been the go-to spot for big screen magic on the Tomaree Peninsula. We’re proudly independent, proudly local, and proudly keeping the choc-top tradition alive.

School holidays? We’ve got the blockbusters the kids won’t stop talking about. Weekend staycation? Nothing says “relax” like a movie and popcorn in hand. Date night? We’ll set the mood (you just have to pick the rom-com). Group catch-up, birthdays, or community nights out? We’ve been hosting them all for decades.

Whether you’re a local or just visiting, a trip to Nelson Bay isn’t complete without a stop at the cinema. Think of us as the town’s longest-running love story, still rolling after half a century.
