Grab a picnic rug and blankets and snuggle up to enjoy a free screening of the hit movie Oddball in Eatons Hill next month.

Before the movie, grab a bite to eat from the food trucks or the community barbecue supporting Albany Creek Lions.
There will also be fairy floss, popcorn, free face painting and free puppy cuddles thanks to the team from Petaholic Warner.
This Movie in the Park presentation is also part of the Moreton Bay Region’s Hills Festival program.
Oddball will be screened at the HT Ireland Reserve, Saraband Dr, Eatons Hill on Friday May 5 from 5-8pm.
Movie in the Park is proudly presented by Moreton Bay Regional Council , and strategic sponsors Moreton Alert, Ausbuild, UniSC, Brisbane Whale Watching, Village Motors and Pacific Harbour Golf and Country Club and gold sponsor Time Mander MP.
