Ringing in the summer season, The Galileo Open Air Cinema is keeping us cool with our much-loved classics, while heating things up with some brand-new concepts. Here’s what you can expect for the rest of November:
New concepts November
Back by popular demand, The Galileo has reintroduced its premium offering, the Galileo Royale. The Royale shows take place once a month at Nederburg in Paarl and the Norval Foundation in the Constantia Wine Valley.
These shows are more intimate with a smaller capacity and are themed with a curated menu including canapés, a welcome drink, popcorn and a main meal. Prepare to treat yourself and a loved one to a Royale evening meant to impress.
Watch the Bokke LIVE on the big screen for one last time in November as the back-to-back champs take on the fighting Irish on Saturday, 22 November.
Book your tickets for a family-friendly day out supporting our boys in green and gold at Central Park in Century City. Expect the kids to make friends and play touch rugby, the sweet smell of boerie rolls and chips, burgers, a stocked bar and more!
The Galileo Classics
Besides the new concepts, watching a classic movie in a picturesque outdoor location is still the essence of the #GalileoUnderTheStars experience. This month’s spectacular line-up of movie screenings is perfect for romantic dates, birthday celebrations, gatherings with friends or year-end parties.
Kids, adults and tweens – check out the schedule to enjoy a range of films such as Dirty Dancing, Love Actually, Mamma Mia, The Greatest Showman and many more.
Black Friday Special
Much to the delight of our wallets and purses, The Galileo has announced the launch of its Black Friday Special, offering discounted tickets for select screenings taking place over four weeks from 19 November to 13 December 2025.
Customers will receive R25 off the Warm & Comfy ticket, paying only R155 (usually R180), which makes it cheaper than last season! The special ticket includes movie entry, a backrest and a blanket – delivering exceptional value for a cosy evening under the stars. A limited allocation of Black Friday Special tickets is available per show, and early booking is strongly recommended. Ts & Cs apply.
This year’s Black Friday line-up features a vibrant selection perfectly timed for the start of the school holidays with The Greatest Showman, Frozen and Happy Feet. With many more memorable titles, including Dirty Dancing, Me Before You, RocknRolla, 500 Days of Summer, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, School of Rock, A Star is Born and Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.
VIP & Premium upgrades
Guests can elevate their outdoor cinema experience by choosing from a selection of premium ticket offerings, including the Front Row Duo, VIP and VIP+ options.
These packages provide exceptional benefits such as reserved seating, popcorn and a bag of CHUCKLES® malted puffs in milk chocolate, along with additional exclusive perks designed to enhance the evening.
Attendees are encouraged to arrive when doors open to secure their perfect spot on the lawns and enjoy an evening filled with delicious food, refreshing beverages, fun lawn games, lively music and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. It’s the ideal opportunity to create movie memories that will shine long after the credits roll.
