About Moonlit Movies
Drinks at sunset, summer sounds, dinner with friends or family, and great films under the stars.
The Concept
A complete night out
Moonlit Movies is an outdoor cinema in Hong Kong. Each screening is hosted in a superb location, combining cocktails on the beach at sunset, dinner and a curated film programme under the stars.
“Drinks at sunset, summer sounds, dinner with friends or family and great films under the stars — all hosted in superb locations.”
Tickets are available via our partner Ticketflap and include entry to the film, a personal deckchair, and Silent Disco headsets or app access for audio.
Moonlit Movies began with a simple idea: that watching a film outdoors should feel like a complete night out rather than just a screening. Set against the deep black of a Hong Kong evening, each event pairs cocktails on the beach at sunset with summer sounds, a shared dinner and a carefully chosen film beneath the stars. The atmosphere is deliberately cinematic in its own right — glowing colour, open air and a gentle crowd of friends, families and couples settling in for the evening.
Every edition is hosted in a superb location, and the programme follows the same rhythm from start to finish: a sundowner hour while the light drains from the sky, food and conversation over dinner, then a feature film as darkness settles in. Attendees are given a deckchair of their own, so the night stays comfortable and unhurried. Some screenings add silent disco headphones, letting the audience hear the film and the music around it at the same time.
The films on offer span award-winners, golden-age classics, oldies, action and adventure, and favourite romantic features, with themed events and specially selected titles added to the calendar across the year. Tickets are sold through the event's ticketing partner and cover entry, seating and the added extras of the evening, which means families and kids can be entertained while adults linger over drinks. It is cinema-goering, but outdoors, under the stars, with a chilled atmosphere that suits a Hong Kong summer.
