150 tickets at $12 ($1,800 gross) minus the 5m screen ($732 delivered) and film licence (~$400) = ~$668 net profit.

Kate used to work at Kardinya Park Hall. One afternoon Alexander arrived early to pick her up and, with time to spare, wandered through the park. He came across an outdoor amphitheatre stage tucked in among the trees and thought it was genuinely impressive for a suburban park.
Then, literally the following week, he had a booking at Kardinya. A proper small world moment. It was only when he typed the address into Google Maps on his way out that he made the connection. Same park. Same amphitheatre. Small world. We have run events at Kardinya Park since, and the amphitheatre stage makes for one of the more atmospheric outdoor cinema settings in the City of Melville.
Established suburbs like Applecross, Mount Pleasant, Attadale, Ardross, and Bicton have large residential blocks well suited to the 3m screen. 3m screen from $332 delivered. Add bean bags at $11 each, delivered free with screen hire.

The City of Melville is one of Perth's most established and desirable inner-southern communities, with a population of over 110,000 across 18 suburbs and some of Perth's finest Swan River frontage. Understanding its history explains the character and strength of the community that makes outdoor cinema events here so well attended.
The suburb of Kardinya takes its name from the Noongar word Kaddidjiny, reflecting the deep linguistic and cultural connection between the Whadjuk Noongar people and the landscape of the Melville area. The City of Melville actively works with Noongar traditional owners on the naming and interpretation of its public places. Kardinya Park, where Perth Pop-Up Movies has run events, sits on Whadjuk Noongar Boodja.
Point Walter in Bicton is known in the Noongar language as Dyoondalup, a place of significant spiritual and cultural importance. The reserve occupies a peninsula extending into the Derbarl Yerrigan (Swan River) with water on three sides and is one of the most atmospheric outdoor cinema locations in all of Perth. Events at this location require coordination with both the City of Melville and the Swan Canning Riverpark authority.
