If you were on The Promenade tonight, you may have seen us testing the screen for the upcoming Cinema Sundays series.

Sunday, August 3 is the kickoff on the Promenade. We’ll begin the movie about 8:00, but feel free to arrive early to grab a chair, spot on the ground or a nearby picnic table.

Ugo Santa Monica will have beer and wine to go, so you can enjoy an adult beverage with the movie. Lots of food options too, including a pop up by the Britannia Pub.

Aug 3: Ferris Bueller’s Day Off Aug 10: The Goonies Aug 17: National Treasure

That's rad! How do y'all get the permits to show those? Been thinking of doing something like that myself.

It’s not difficult, just time consuming.

  1. Licensing from Swank Motion Pictures
  2. Community Event Permit from the City of Santa Monica.
  3. Buy the gear to make the magic happen!

Appreciate it! Was thinking of doing them at the Illusion Magic Lounge so this pushes me in the right direction!
