When a child is in hospital, they miss out on the moments that make childhood special.
Together with The Walt Disney Company Australia, we’re changing that.
The collaboration
Through Disney Movie Moments, Starlight brings the joy of the cinema into hospital.
In Starlight Express Rooms across Australia, families can come together to enjoy first-run Disney movies and Disney+ access together, providing a sense of community during a time in which they may not be able to visit movie theatres, so they don't miss out.
The screenings offer patients and their families places to gather and create memories while in the hospital and when they need it most.
It’s more than a movie.
It’s a shared experience, a sense of normality, and a moment to simply be a kid again.
What it looks like
Mobile movie experiences
Flexible cinema set-ups designed for hospital spaces, bringing movies to children so more can join in.
First-release films
Access to first-run Disney movies that children would otherwise miss while in hospital.
Moments of connection
Families watching together, laughing together, and making memories together.
Why it matters
Hospital can be overwhelming, especially for children.
Starlight Express Rooms are places of fun, creativity and connection, where kids can take a break from treatment and just be kids.
The addition of Disney Movie Moments brings something even more powerful: a chance to escape into story, imagination, and wonder.
These moments lift spirits, create connection, and transform the hospital experience in a meaningful way.
A shared purpose
At the heart of this collaboration is a shared belief: storytelling has the power to bring joy, comfort and connection when it’s needed most.
Together, Starlight and Disney are creating moments that matter for children and families navigating some of life’s toughest days.
