About

The Catamaran runs outdoor movies on Mission Bay every Monday through summer, and the setting changes what watching a movie means. The water is a few feet away. The air smells like salt and sunscreen. The screen is outside in the way only San Diego can justify on a July Monday night.

They show films the way the venue earns them: movies that make sense with the bay behind the screen. Tropical resort energy, bring-a-blanket, the kind of place where people show up early to claim the right spot on the grass. The analog version, sound carrying across the open air the way it always did.

Monday nights June through September. Check the resort calendar for the specific film each week. The bay does not change. The movie does.

Macross: Do You Remember Love? -- First Official U.S. Theatrical Screening

Tomorrow · Jul 5 800 W Olympic Blvd, Los Angeles, C…

The film that defined the Macross franchise gets its first official US theatrical run since its original release. Not the streaming version. A theater, the original print, and an audience that knows every frame. The film itself is a theatrical retelling of the original Super Dimension Fortress Macross television series, condensed into a feature-length experience that blends mecha warfare, a love triangle, and the premise that music can end a galactic war. Directed by Noboru Ishiguro and Shoji Kawamori, the film is considered a benchmark of 1980s anime production. Its space battle sequences and character animation set standards that influenced a generation of animators. The soundtrack -- particularly Mari Iijima's original performances of Do You Remember Love? and My Boyfriend Is a Pilot -- became foundational texts of anime music culture. Worth it? Who it's for: If you have watched any Macross series, listened to Mari Iijima, or know what Valkyrie fighters are, this screening is for you -- and for the next 40 years, it will be one of those events you either attended or missed. Classic anime collector culture prizes theatrical screenings of foundational films above almost any contemporary release because of the rarity. This is a once-in-a-lifetime screening, not a revival. It is the first official time. The Novo is a 2,300-seat venue; tickets are limited. What to know before you go: The screening is Sunday July 5, 2026 at noon at The Novo by Microsoft, 800 W Olympic Blvd, Los Angeles. This is adjacent to Anime Expo 2026 (July 2-5 at LACC), making it a natural anchor for AX attendees. A BIGWEST Macross panel precedes the screening at Anime Expo (July 2, 1 PM, Room 511ABC at LACC). The Novo is walkable from the Convention Center. Buy tickets well in advance -- the collector community for this film is global, not local, and demand will exceed venue capacity. The Macross: Do You Remember Love? theatrical screening is the kind of event the anime community has waited for longer than most of its members have been alive. When licensing barriers fall, they sometimes fall for a single moment. This is that moment. July 5, 2026, The Novo, Los Angeles.

Pageant of the Masters 2026 — The Greatest of All Time

In 5 days · Jul 9 From ~$15 650 Laguna Canyon Road, Laguna Bea…

Every summer, Laguna Beach stages one of the most extraordinary spectacles in all of American art — the Pageant of the Masters, where living humans recreate famous paintings, sculptures, and works of art in breathtaking tableaux vivants. The 2026 production is titled "The Greatest of All Time," celebrating artists and art movements that defined history. Costumed performers hold perfectly still as lighting engineers sculpt them into exact three-dimensional replicas of masterworks, accompanied by a live orchestra narrating the stories behind each piece. The Pageant runs nightly at 8:30 PM from July 9 through September 4, 2026, at the iconic Irvine Bowl amphitheater — an outdoor venue cut into the Laguna hills that has hosted this tradition since 1933. The experience is unlike anything else in Southern California. One moment you're watching what appears to be a photograph of a Dutch Golden Age oil painting; then the lights shift and 20 people exhale simultaneously, reminding you it was all real. Doors open at 7:30 PM; arrive early to walk the Festival of Arts grounds alongside the venue. Parking is available in city lots along Laguna Canyon Road, with shuttle service running from overflow lots. Tickets range from approximately 5 to 00 depending on seat location and are available through the Festival of Arts box office online. This is the rare SoCal summer event that genuinely rewards making the drive — and that gets more impressive the closer you sit to the stage.

5 Star Theatricals presents The Wizard of Oz

In 6 days · Jul 10 2100 E. Thousand Oaks, Fred Kavli …

Fred Kavli Theatre, Thousand Oaks. July 10th, 2026. 5 Star Theatricals brings The Wizard of Oz to one of the best regional stages in the Conejo Valley — a production company that knows exactly what this room can hold, in a venue built to hold it properly. Tickets at ticketmaster.com. The Kavli is 1,800 seats of genuine theatrical infrastructure — orchestra pit, fly space, an acoustic ceiling that makes a live ensemble sound the way it's supposed to. 5 Star Theatricals works this room specifically, which means the production design is calibrated to what the space does well: sightlines clean from nearly everywhere, the proscenium wide enough for a full company. "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" in a room with real reverb is a different experience than it is anywhere else. Oz is a show people bring their kids to because their parents brought them — that generational loop runs through the audience in a way that's visible during curtain call, which is worth staying for. Regional theater at this level doesn't get enough credit. Ticketmaster has the seats. Pick yours before the good sections close.

Plaza Theatre, 128 S Palm Canyon Dr, Palm Springs. July 11th. Grease on the screen of the 1936 Plaza Theatre in Palm Springs — which is the specific combination of film, venue, and city that produces a screening where the audience participates in a way that Palm Springs audiences know how to do. Grease is the movie that has been watched so many times, by so many people, that the audience in the Plaza on July 11th will know every line before it's spoken. That's the point. The sing-a-long format isn't imposed on this film — it's the natural state of a room full of people who grew up with this soundtrack and are now in a 1936 movie palace in the summer with nowhere to be. Tickets at ticketmaster.com. The Plaza Theatre is a serious venue for this kind of evening — the acoustics, the architecture, and the Palm Springs summer air outside the doors combine into something that a multiplex can't produce. Come with the people you can embarrass yourself around. You will. Everyone does. Lightning strikes, thunderclapping, grease lightning.

Grand Park Summer Events & Free Movies 2026 — Los Angeles

Grand Park runs twelve acres from City Hall to the Music Center in the center of downtown Los Angeles. On summer evenings, the park hosts free outdoor movies on a screen that requires no membership, no blanket application, no reservation. You show up. The audience is downtown Los Angeles in cross-section: workers who stayed late and found a reason to stay later, people who walked over from Pershing Square, families from Boyle Heights and Chinatown and Echo Park who treat Grand Park as a weekend destination, tourists who didn't know this existed. Grand Park runs community events, free concerts, and cultural programming through summer and fall — summer movies, fitness events, cultural celebrations, and the kind of public programming that cities claim to want and rarely sustain. Grand Park has sustained it for over a decade. 200 N Grand Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90012. Free. Adjacent to Metro Red and Purple Lines at Civic Center. grandparkla.org for 2026 schedule.

San Diego Summer Movies in the Park 2026

In 7 days · Jul 11 Free Waterfront Park, 1600 Pacific Hwy,…

They believed every San Diego neighborhood deserved at least one summer evening where you could watch a movie outside, under the actual sky, for free, with your neighbors. The Summer Movies in the Park series has been making that case every year, rotating through parks across the city from July through October. The format is the point: find your neighborhood screening, bring a blanket, show up before dark, and watch something good under the stars. No tickets. No reserved seats. No venue with its own dress code. Just the park becoming a theater for the night, and everyone there because they wanted to be somewhere good on a summer evening. The lineup covers enough ground that there's usually something worth the trip — a recent release, a classic, something the kids haven't seen yet. The rotating locations mean every neighborhood gets a turn, which is a better design than a single fixed venue that only some parts of the city can easily reach. Find the closest screening, put it on the calendar, and show up when the one that fits runs. Free to attend. No registration required. Rotating locations throughout San Diego County. Saturday evenings through October 31. Full schedule at summermoviesinthepark.com.

Cinespia Summer Screenings 2026 — Hollywood Forever Cemetery

In 7 days · Jul 11 Ticketed Hollywood Forever Cemetery, 6000 S…

They believed the perfect setting for a film wasn't a dark room with assigned seats — it was a summer evening on a lawn surrounded by the people who grew up loving the same movie. Cinespia built that belief into an institution at Hollywood Forever Cemetery, and every Saturday night from July through September, they prove the argument again. Gates open before dark, early enough to set up a blanket, pour a drink, and watch the audience arrive. The crowd brings a specific energy to films they've seen a dozen times — scenes that are known by heart land differently when thousands of people experience them simultaneously on an outdoor screen. Some nights the crowd sings along. Some nights there's silence because the scene still works, decades later, in the cemetery where the people who made it are buried. The lineup shifts each week — cult classics, crowd favorites, films that deserve to be watched this way. Tickets sell out in advance, and the calendar fills fast once the summer schedule drops. This is not a last-minute plan. Advance tickets required. Check cinespia.org for the 2026 lineup and schedule. Every Saturday through September. Hollywood Forever Cemetery, 6000 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles.

The Hotel del Coronado has been doing this since before outdoor cinema was a trend: movies on the beach, on actual sand, with the Pacific in the peripheral vision and private bonfires for the people who plan ahead. Summer 2026 lineup runs every Sunday through late October. Films skew toward crowd pleasers with cultural weight: Top Gun Maverick on the beach where it was filmed, Grease on sand under the same sky every drive-in scene was reaching for, Raiders of the Lost Ark with the ocean wind doing what it does to outdoor audio. The setting is the point. The movie is the occasion. Screenings start at 7:30pm. Reserve a bonfire if you want one. The beach fills earlier than you expect.

You found your people.

They didn't know each other before Falkor either.
