Add Blue Sky Outdoor Cinemas To Your Event
As the daylight fades and dusk settles in, there’s no better way to spend a warm summer evening than watching a movie outdoors with friends and family. Our stunning Blue Sky Outdoor Cinema setup offers deckchair seating, giant LED screens with crystal-clear visuals and sound, plus optional gourmet street food catering from our vintage Airstream trailer. It’s cinema under the stars – the perfect centerpiece for any special event.
Sprawling screens flanked by concert-quality speakers transform wherever we set up into an open-air theater. As the show begins, displays come alive with vibrant colors and sharp images thanks to our cutting-edge LEDs. No seat has a bad view, with deckchairs arranged for optimized visibility. We utilize the same screens found in major live touring productions to deliver exceptional cinema viewing, letting you fully immerse yourself in Hollywood’s biggest blockbusters, beloved classics and fascinating documentaries outside.
Our experienced event production team handles every aspect of staging a truly memorable movie night tailored to your needs. All A/V equipment integrates together seamlessly, carefully calibrated by technicians to optimize video and audio for the setting. Moreover, if you want to play your own films we can set up cinema packages featuring your custom playlist.
Food & Drink
While eyes stay glued to our cinema screens, we also cater to appetites with our one-of-a-kind Airstream trailer conversion. Fully refurbished into a hip street food vehicle, its commercial-grade equipment churns out hot, fresh meals and snacks all evening, so attendees can feast on artisan pizzas with creative toppings, loaded fries overflowing with flavour or classic hot dogs and nachos. Of course, what’s a movie without popcorn, candy and soft drinks? We offer all the quintessential concession fare along with alcoholic beverages for the 18+ crowd.
Those with a sweet tooth can cap off the show with ice creams, delicious Belgian Waffles or pouches of retro sweets from the incredible Candy Works! With such phenomenal food and entertainment, you’ll discover that our outdoor cinemas redefine movie nights.
Our all-inclusive packages simplify coordination so you can focus on quality time with guests. Allow us to transform your event space or field into a pop-up cinema built for relaxation. Deckchair seating transports viewers into a cozy oasis beneath the stars, encouraging them to kick back and disconnect from devices.
No bathroom or concession stand lines to battle thanks to our ample facilities and food truck. Immerse yourself completely in films without distraction surrounded by lush scenery. We even supply complementary blankets to keep warm as temperatures drop after sundown.

Our Complete Cinema Setups Deliver Big Fun

Seated Cinema Events – For larger scale occasions, our pro grade seated theatre packages allow up to 800 guests to have a VIP movie experience under the open air. We set up an extra wide high-definition panoramic screen, surround sound audio equipment, luxurious seating and even concession stands for a completely immersive outdoor cinema. It’s perfect for universities, charities, local governments and big corporations wanting to treat attendees to something extraordinary yet affordable.
Drive-In Movie Nights – Recapture the nostalgic fun of retro drive-in theaters with our mobile drive-in packages. We transform fields, stadium parking lots and other outdoor venues into pop-up drive-in theatres, allowing guests to view flicks right from their vehicles. Our giant LED outdoor cinema screens ensure optimal views from every car while our broadcast technology plays the audio right through a high-quality Bluetooth speaker provided on arrival. Drive-ins are great for school socials, sports teams, community centers and private parties with teen/family friendly entertainment.
How it works
Whatever your outdoor cinema vision calls for, Blue Sky makes it happen start to finish. As your dedicated event consultants and A/V tech crew, we:
– Meet to determine your ideal outdoor movie setup, screen placement, seating/parking logistics and more
– Obtain any needed permits and clearances for public events
– Provide the mammoth screen, seating and all audio gear
– Set up concession stands or snack carts per your requests (see more below)
– Manage film licensing, securing public performance rights for major motion pictures and indie flicks
– Operate all outdoor cinema equipment and handle the event production from screen assembly to breakdown
– Supply optional furniture rentals like folding chairs, beanbags, blankets and more
With our turnkey cinema packages costing a fraction of permanent indoor theaters, hosting an unforgettable movie night under the stars makes good budget sense.
Screen Scene: Movie Selection for Different Audiences
Of course the cinema experience is defined largely by what’s playing up on screen to entertain your guests. Our seasoned event managers have great familiarity with film licensing rules and work directly with major Hollywood studios and independents to secure public performance rights for hundreds of popular comedies, action titles, kids flicks, documentaries and more.
We build a custom playlist matching the tone of your special occasion and the tastes of attendees young and old. Planning a family reunion? We’ll line up animated features, PG comedies and maybe an inspirational biopic grandma will love. Organizing a university welcome week event? How aboutclassic high school movies and sports docs to pump up school spirit? Fundraising for a nonprofit? Uplifting documentaries and dramas align nicely. We make thoughtful film recommendations, but the final selections come down to you.
Beyond movies, we have the capability to show television events, music concert footage, sports programs, instructional videos, personal media and virtually any visual content imaginable to meet your unique needs. For instance, a school may want to show commencement footage from past graduation ceremonies at a pre-grad celebration. A corporation may opt for an inspirational TED Talk themed to leadership development at a company retreat. The options are wide open!
Fan Favorite Genres
While each client has distinct goals and crowd preferences, below are some of our most requested outdoor movie genres by event type:
School Events – Disney and Pixar animation, Harry Potter series, Marvel action, High School Musical variants
Community Groups – Classic films, inspirational documentaries, educational programming
Corporate Parties – Comedies, crime thrillers, adventure films, surprise sneak previews
Nonprofit Fundraisers – Biopics, social issue docs, classic musicals, auction programming
Faith Groups – Family comedies, biblical films, spiritual documentaries
Of course program preferences evolve over time with new cinema releases. Our veteran consultants stay atop viewing trends to incorporate the latest hit movies into our playlists. Can’t wait for a new Marvel flick or the next Mission Impossible? No problem! As soon as hot new titles are cleared for public performance, we can feature them at your premier event.
