Event Cinemas Cairns Smithfield is a convenient cinema destination at Smithfield Shopping Centre, with free parking and access from either the Kennedy Highway or Captain Cook Highway. The venue screens current releases alongside special programming, including advance screenings, seniors sessions, anime, K-pop, classic-film anniversaries, horror features and family titles.
There are two main viewing options: Original for the standard cinema experience, and V-Max for larger screens, bigger sound and a broader choice of seats. The programme also includes Little Kids Screenings for children under five, Bring Your Baby sessions, open-caption screenings and selected event films, giving families and film fans more ways to plan a visit. Group bookings are available for larger gatherings.
Food and drink extend beyond standard cinema snacks. Scoop Alley is a self-service candy bar offering snacks, hot food, real coffee and Frozen Coke, while the venue also promotes Parlour Lane Choc Tops and popcorn. Gold Class adds a more relaxed format, with a lounge where guests can enjoy a drink before or after the film, plus coffee and dessert afterwards. Café and bar options include wines by the glass and barista-made coffee. With regular sessions, themed screenings and upgraded experiences, the Smithfield cinema suits families, groups and anyone looking for more choice around a movie outing.
