Open Air Cinema
Cinematic experiences beyond the cinema space
Fascination Open-Air
Open-air cinema transforms any location into a cinematic experience. Our parent company BIG cinema offers end-to-end solutions for outdoor film screenings - from concept to execution.
Whether it's a one-night event, a touring format, or a full summer cinema series, the service combines cutting-edge projection technology with over 20 years of experience in live cinema events.
Turnkey open-air cinema solutions
BIG cinema provides complete, ready-to-use packages that cover nearly every use case - from brand activations and corporate events to public screenings and multi-week summer cinema formats.
From compact to large-scale, we provide tailored technical solutions with minimal preparation and without the need for massive installations, front of house, or scaffolding. Each mobile projection unit is permanently connected to our headquarters in Leipzig and combines BIG cinema's smart technical architecture with integrated climate control and automated sound and lighting direction.
Each setup includes:
- DCI-compliant digital projection
- Inflatable or modular screen systems
- Professional sound and lighting technology
- Technical infrastructure and logistics
- On-site setup, operation, and support
Flexibility & scalability: Cinema anywhere
Open-air cinema is defined by its adaptability. From rooftops to beaches, courtyards, or remote landscapes - nearly any location can become a screening venue.
BIG cinema specializes in mobile cinema systems that enable:
- Fast setup and dismantling
- Reliable operation under changing conditions
- Scalable setups for small to large audiences
This flexibility is essential, as outdoor cinema often operates under tight seasonal windows and dynamic environmental conditions.
Proven in over 1000 events worldwide
With experience from more than 1,000 national and international events, BIG cinema brings deep operational know-how to every project.
From Sydney to Zingst, every project benefits from:
- Established workflows

Beyond hardware, the service includes consulting and planning – from film selection to ticketing, sponsorship integration, and event production.
The experience: More than a screening
Open-air cinema is not just about watching a film – it’s about creating a shared moment.
The combination of atmosphere and location, social exchange, and film culture in public space makes each event a special moment in which the surroundings become part of the staging.
Each project is tailored to the client's goals, target audience, and location.
