Quick answer

How much is a school movie night in Fremantle?

A school movie night in Fremantle costs $720 for the 5m screen (up to 230 guests) or $1,220 for the 8m screen (up to 1,200 guests), delivered, set up and run by our operator. That includes $120 delivery from our Kwinana base, 30 km away. The price is the same on any day, and the film licence, canteen and ticketing are on top. Updated November 2026.

Fremantle's schools are close together, so one 5m screen night at Booyeembara Park or Fremantle Park can bring several school communities into one fundraiser.

How it works

Running a school movie night in Fremantle, step by step

Pick the venue and date. Check with your school if it is on the school oval, or with the City of Fremantle if it is a council park or reserve.
Choose the film and the licence. The film licence is arranged by the organiser through Roadshow or Amalgamated Movies, and the fee varies by film, up to about $2,000, so allow 2 to 3 weeks. Under our Fully Managed service we arrange it as your agent, with the fee included up to $1,000 per film.
Set your ticket price and sell tickets through an online ticketing platform or at the school.
Book the screen. Tell us the date, venue and expected crowd. We confirm within 24 hours and recommend the right size.
On the night, we deliver, set up and run the screening, then pack down. You run the canteen and the raffle.
