The event will be held at Maitland Park on November 15 in what will be the seventh year of the event in the city.

"We know how much our community loves our Cinema Under the Stars events," Ms Inglis said.
"Last year we saw 33,000 people attend our events and we're expecting record numbers again this season with a fabulous night of family-friendly entertainment on offer.
The free event is set to feature the best of old and new family friendly movies for all ages to enjoy.
"Earlier this year we asked our Facebook followers to nominate their favourite films for this season and Toy Story 4 was tremendously popular.
"Fortunately the film is available for screening in time for our January 2020 events and in the meantime, we're excited to feature the real action remakes of Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin, and a classic still in high demand, Home Alone.

Pre-movie entertainment including circus workshops, an inflatable football target and live music will keep the kids active and all ages entertained before the movie starts at sunset.
"We encourage everyone to come down from 5.30pm to settle in and relax with a picnic, enjoy the pre-movie entertainment and activities, and experience the magical atmosphere of watching a popular family film in the great outdoors," Ms Inglis said.
