Bali venues have stepped up and have created their own style of cinema to keep us all safe and entertained during Covid-19 times (and hopefully thereafter).
Movie Experiences During Covid-19 Times
We don’t know about you, but we used to be regular cinema visitors and we sure have been missing Bali cinemas since they closed due to the pandemic. Leave it to the clever Bali businesses though who have created their own style of cinema to keep us all safe and entertained during this time… and just quietly, we hope these events are here to stay!! We have rounded up for you where to catch a movie in Bali right now…

Tamora Gallery, the popular lifestyle shopping destination for residents and tourists of the island of Bali, has chosen to become more family-friendly!

This project will last 3 months (surely from June to September) and it will air the most famous children’s cartoon such as Nemo (the famous adventures of the little clownfish and his short-term memory-loss friend Dori), Hotel Transylvania (the entire trilogy), Minions (too funny!!), The Lion King (great classic of the big screen), Frozen (brrr… it’s so cold!), Beauty and the Beast (the greatest love story ever) and more.
