- Museo Reina Sofía summer cinema
Summer nights find a new setting in the Museo Reina Sofía garden, where cinema is enjoyed under the stars and surrounded by art.
- Cibeles de Cine
Of course, CentroCentro couldn’t be left out. From 26 June, the most central cinema will open its doors. But it won’t be outdoors—it will be under the glass roof of the Palacio de Cibeles. You can enjoy this splendour until 11 September.
- Cine de Verano por Distritos de Madrid
Every summer, the districts of Madrid fill their streets and open spaces with outdoor activities, among which Cine de Verano is one of the most common.
In some neighbourhoods, the screenings last only a few weeks; in others, they run throughout the summer season.
All that’s left is to choose your district and enjoy cinema under the city sky.
- Autocine Madrid
A timeless classic of outdoor cinema: Autocine. A huge cinema with space for 350 cars is located in the Chamartín district. This project was created by four young entrepreneurs so that people in Madrid can enjoy films on a giant screen.
- «La Terraza Magnética 2026. Cartographies of the Night» festival
When night falls and the heat dissolves over the rooftops, La Terraza Magnética awakens. This summer, La Casa Encendida presents a new edition of its open-air festival.
