More Than a Screen in a Field
Outdoor screenings are social events. Guests arrive early, picnic and chat, so there is plenty of room for activities around the film itself.
Ideas Around the Film
Make extras optional and light. These ideas appear in our outdoor event projects.
- Pre-show games — quizzes or trivia on the big screen
- Photo moments — props and backdrops themed to the film
- Voting — let the audience choose a bonus short
- Trail activities — a themed hunt around the site
- Post-screening content — scan to relive highlights

Plan the Practicalities
Screens need darkness, sound needs control and weather needs a back-up. Check sunset times, neighbouring noise limits and protection for equipment.
Check Licences
Public screenings require suitable licences for the film and the venue. This is general information, not legal advice. Agencies planning outdoor events can talk to us via our partnership programme.
