Studio Ghibli Afternoons (Free)


Bring the kids along to enjoy a free mini outdoor film festival of Studio Ghibli films, leading up to the Easter weekend.

Each day, Fed Square will be screening two films back-to-back, a free double-feature that celebrates the vibrant landscapes, unforgettable characters, and deeply imaginative stories that have made Studio Ghibli a global treasure.

  • Monday 14 April, 2pm: Castle in the Sky (PG) and Howl's Moving Castle (PG)

  • Tuesday 15 April, 2pm: Pom Poko (PG) and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (PG)

  • Wednesday 16 April, 2pm: My Neighbour Totoro (G) and The Cat Returns (G)

  • Thursday 17 April, 2pm: Whisper of the Heart (PG) and Spirited Away (PG)

Soar through the skies in Castle in the Sky, where adventure and ancient secrets await, or immerse yourself in the heartwarming world of My Neighbour Totoro, a tale of childhood wonder. Experience the touching storytelling of Whisper of the Heart, or the environmental journeys of Pom Poko and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind.

Each film transports you into a realm of magic and fantasy, from the whimsical The Cat Returns to the fantastical Howl’s Moving Castle, and the dreamlike Spirited Away

The deckchairs will be out for you to relax and enjoy the films with your family, or feel free to BYO picnic rug or camping chairs.
