What to Do in Auckland - Movies

Watching movies here is not cheap compared to Manila, but it can be cheap for NZ standards if you buy the ticket as a student. Regular ticket price is around NZ$17.00 (PhP PhP 550.00). But if you get the Student concession the ticket price will go down to NZ$10.00 (PhP340.00). All you have to do is apply at the counter, show your school ID and pay the NZ$10.00 application fee (it's worth it). The movies are up to date here in New Zealand. Since we're at the eastern edge of the international date line, meaning we're a day advanced than the US, we get movies ahead of schedule (to combat movie piracy).

I watch at Events Cinemas in Metro Centre on Queen Street. It's located between Aotea Square and the Civic Centre. You can't miss the big Events Cinemas/IMAX sign on the roof. The food court here is one of the places with free WIFI internet. FYI.
