Movies draw people together. Whether you and your friends are avid film enthusiasts or just people who enjoy a casual flick, there’s no better excuse to hang out for a few hours of entertainment. If your party planning includes something bigger than a simple movie night in someone’s living room—like a corporate movie screening—then a portable cinema can prove invaluable. Here are seven places where you can set one up.


Consider These Portable Cinema Location Ideas in Your Party Planning

1. Lecture Halls

Movie nights are a time-honored tradition for university students. However, you can enjoy one even if you aren’t a student there. Most campuses have lecture halls that can comfortably hold large numbers of people. After getting permission from the institution, make use of these sites for your gathering.

2. Basketball Courts

Want to host an enormous screening but not sure where to find enough space? Look for a basketball court or other sports venue near you with prebuilt seating. This also has the advantage of being easy to find, since many people will have likely been there at some point in the past.

3. Poolside

For the ultimate pool party, set up your screen and speakers around the water. This will create a unique place to relax and hang out while the movie plays. Don’t forget to include seating outside the pool as well for guests who don’t want to get wet. 

4. Parking Lots

To host your own drive-in movie, put the screen on one side of a large parking lot and have cars park facing it. You can place food tables at the back and position speakers where they’ll effectively reach every car.

For community events featuring film and food, consider reserving a local park. Families can spread blankets out on the grass, bring snacks or purchase from vendors, and bond while they enjoy the feature film.

6. Beaches

Any beach bash is sure to be a casual time that creates great memories. Take it a step higher by setting up an enormous portable cinema. If you really want to take advantage of the setting, select a movie like Jaws or Cast Away.

7. Backyards

Perhaps the most natural location of all for a private cinema is a backyard. This will involve minimal setup since you already have a bathroom and other facilities close at hand. You also won’t have to worry about renting another area: just provide enough chairs or blankets, and your party is ready to go.
