1 / 2Event Cinemas Westcity
📍 Henderson, Auckland
Two-level cinema complex at Westcity with traditional, Vmax large-format and Gold Class recliner options. Games arcade on the lower level. Café on site. Three hours of mall parking available.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families who want to combine a film with arcade time before or after - the two-level layout makes that easy. Vmax delivers on screen size and sound. Pack an extra layer for children as some cinema halls run very cold. Weekday sessions are significantly quieter than weekend visits.

“Event Cinemas Westcity is the best in Auckland. I'm so lucky it's my local. I saw Spiderman and enjoyed it a lot but I watch a lot of movies because this cinema is so awesome.”
