Friday

For all Wil Wheaton fans around the country Event Cinemas have another In The House – Cult Film Classics at Event Cinemas session on with the classic Stand by Me if you are in need of feels.

Also on Friday although Sold out over in Perth the Respawn Nintendo Boat Party is on. If you don’t have a ticket don’t worry because you can work on all those last minute cosplay modifications in time for what is happening on Saturday which Respawn will also be at…
