Merry Melton movie night

The Melton Library & Learning Hub is rolling out the red carpet (and maybe a few booby traps) for its festive film night on Thursday 18 December with a special community screening of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.

The film kicks off at 5.45pm and runs to 7.45pm with families, friends, and Christmas tragics alike invited to settle in for a night of laughs, nostalgia, and yuletide chaos.

If you’ve ever worried about losing your keys, spare a thought for the McCallisters, who have once again managed to lose Kevin, proving some Christmas traditions are harder to shake than fruitcake. This time, Kevin hops on the wrong flight and finds himself in New York City, where he uses his dad’s credit card to check into the luxurious Plaza Hotel before running into his old enemies The Wet Bandits, who are back to cause more mischief than a naughty elf on a shelf.

This year’s screening is PG and open to all, so feel free to deck yourself out in your best Christmas gear – ugly sweaters, Santa hats, or even a pretend Talkboy if you’re feeling extra nostalgic are more than encouraged.

Bring along some snacks, cushions and picnic rugs to get comfy – just maybe leave the paint cans and micro-machines at home.

So, mark your calendars and jingle all the way to 31 McKenzie Street, because this festive flick is guaranteed to leave you laughing, gasping and feeling all the holiday heart.
