Dine, recline and revel in cinematic time lakeside this Valentine’s Day with your special someone
- Written by The Times
Indulge in the ultimate romantic picnic at Lovers by Lakeside overlooking stunning Australian Botanic Garden views, nestled in the comfort of your special spot watching a classic romantic comedy.
Settle in for a night of wonder, romance and teenage 90’s slang as you watch this year’s chosen film, 10 Things I Hate About You starring Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles on our spectacular 10 metre outdoor screen.
Prepare for a night filled with laughs and of course… love! Visit the south-west of Sydney for a magical night out that will make you feel like a film character amongst such beautiful nature settings.
