🏙️ 7 DAYS OF FUN: REELS, MEALS & DOCKLANDS DEALS 🏙️

The time has come for the silver screen and a massive dose of cinematic storytelling. Join Dan for a city stroll that starts with a stack of pancakes and ends with a blockbuster at Hoyts that’ll have you questioning why you ever pay full price for movies. 7 Days of FUN is about the three pillars of Melbourne greatness: Food, Bants, and the Best Seats in the Cinema.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: 12 SPOTS ONLY - MOVIE TICKETS BOOKED SEPARATELY

To keep the group "iconic" and ensure we can actually get seats for the movie, we are strictly capping this at 12 spots. First in, best dressed (literally and figuratively).

🗺️ THE GAME PLAN: PANCAKES & HOLLYWOOD

We aren't just walking; we’re fueling up and finding the best frames.

The Launchpad: We meet at The Pancake Parlour (The District Docklands). Whether you're craving sweet or savoury, this is the ultimate spot to settle in, fuel up, and get the pre-movie gossip flowing. (Driving? Make sure to hold onto your Hoyts movie ticket to claim discounted parking!)

The Scenic Stroll: Once we're fed and happy, we’ll take a trek through the Docklands district. We'll explore parts of Ron Barassi Senior Park and head along New Quay Promenade.

The Grand Finale: We’ll wrap up at Hoyts and enjoy our movie. This is where the "athletic" part of the night ends and the "popcorn-shoveling" part begins with some budget-friendly tickets.
