Family-friendly movies are returning to Geraldton’s Stow Gardens from Friday for another season of Films on the Foreshore.

The series of films kicks off with Wonka, which was released last year and stars Timothee Chalamet as the aspiring magician, inventor and chocolatier.

The variety of offerings include animated film Megamind, Australian movie Storm Boy and 1980s classic Back to the Future.

City of Greater Geraldton deputy mayor Natasha Colliver was delighted with the return of Films on the Foreshore.
