Sundown Cinema is a free outdoor movie series that visits parks around the city.
Moviegoers can expect local food, drinks, music, themed pre-show entertainment, and film selections that celebrate the unique character and beauty of San Francisco and its parks!
The entire series is free and open to the public but attendees can secure reserved seating by becoming an SF Parks Alliance member in advance. Reserved seating ensures attendees have a space to sit, even during the most popular and busy events. Membership supports the SF Parks Alliance, the only citywide parks nonprofit in San Francisco, and comes with many additional benefits. Current members and those interested in joining can secure reserved seating here.
Yes! Low-hanging chairs are allowed. If you bring a tall chair, please be mindful of those sitting around you and try to sit on the edges of the crowd so that everyone can have an enjoyable viewing experience!
Can I bring my dog?
Yes! Furry friends are allowed and must be leashed at all times. We recommend that your dog be comfortable around large crowds and loud noises.
