Cars 3!
Our Free movie night under the stars is a family affair!
About this PG rated film.
Lightning McQueen, a hotshot rookie race car driven to succeed, discovers that life is about the journey, not the finish line, when he finds himself unexpectedly detoured in the sleepy Route 66 town of Radiator Springs. On route across the country to the big Piston Cup Championship in California to compete against two seasoned pros, McQueen gets to know the town's offbeat characters.
Bring your friends along and enjoy a relaxing night. There will be amazing food trucks on offer along with a bar service.
Some seating is available however we encourage you to bring a seat or blanket.
There are reserved areas for those requiring accessible flat surface for wheelchairs / prams or other needs. Access to this area is best through Gate 1 off Symmons St. It will be signposted.

Rocker cover racing
Who will be the winner of the Grand Prix BnB Rocker Cover Race?
🏁 What is Rocker Cover Racing?
Rocker Cover Racing is a fun and creative competition where participants race gravity-powered vehicles made from rocker covers (valve covers) down a sloped track. Think soapbox derby, but on a smaller scale! It’s all about creativity, friendly rivalry, and a bit of gravity-powered excitement. There are some more formal formats and regulations in some meet ups. But BNB25 racing is just for fun.
You're Invited to Rocker Cover Racing at Bumpers’n’Beats!
Get ready to race at Bumpers’n’Beats! No need to bring your own racer—rocker cover racers will be provided for us. Just bring your enthusiasm and competitive spirit! Choose your weapon of choice and take on each other for some awesome excitement and fun.
You can find us on the lawn at Bicentennial Square.
