One of the best Cinemas in Canberra. A good value, family friendly venue. Good range of the latest entertainment with regular special events on offer, a rewards program and newly renovated with a premium cinema where food and drinks are brought in on request! Well recommended.

With plenty of specialty shops, cafes, coffee shops all under cover, the Canberra Centre is a great place to hang out with friends or just window shop solo. It is easy to access by public transport, parking is reasonable. You can also take in a movie. Lots of great places outside the building too.

I saw the costume exhibition from the Australian film, The Dressmaker, here. Not only was it a really beautiful exhibition but, upon my arrival, I availed myself of a lovely morning tea at the cafe before entering the exhibition, and then enjoyed a delicious lunch there afterwards! It was also a quick and easy bus ride there from the city centre.
