Where To Watch Movies Outdoors For Free This Summer In Warsaw

Long, warm summer evenings, deck chairs and blankets, and the best of international cinema playing in parks around the city, completely for free – this summer Warsaw is turning yet again into the unofficial film capital. Here’s our guide to the best places to enjoy free screenings this summer.

Summer Film Capital

With almost 200 titles playing in 23 locations, Summer Film Capital is the largest outdoor movie project in the city. All the films have both Polish and English subtitles, making them foreigner-friendly. However, remember that there are usually more audience members than there are free desk chairs, so either bring a blanket or aim to arrive earlier.
To get a full program, check out the Facebook page, but here’s a little sneak-pick into the most intriguing series. Every Tuesday to commemorate 25th anniversary of partnership between Tel Aviv and Warsaw, the Israeli Embassy organizes a screening of contemporary Israeli cinema. Those more interested in the classics should head to Amfiteatr Bemowo to enjoy films from Woody Allen and Luc Besson.
Wednesdays in Wilanów are dedicated to Oscar winners, while Thursdays in Agrykola to French sport cinema. On Friday, it is worth checking out old Polish classics in Ursynów or the space action films in Copernicus Centre. Finally, on Saturday get teleported to the Iberian Peninsula from Kępa Potocka or fight all Four Elements in Wilanów.
