ROOFTOP CINEMA RETURNS!
If you enjoy watching movies and sitting on rooftops with 159 other people, then no doubt you’re already familiar with Rooftop Cinema. Back for its sixth season with an impressive line-up of movie titles, this year will see intermissions introduced for some bevvy replenishment, as well as catering by the Taco Truck crew. I can picture it now – me surrounded by city skyline, guffawing at a movie while taco crumbs litter my chest. Hot.
