There's something undeniably magical about watching a movie under the vast night sky, surrounded by nature, with the twinkling stars adding an extra layer of enchantment to the big screen. "Films at the Fort" is a unique and captivating cinematic experience that offers just that - a perfect blend of classic cinema, the great outdoors, and an unforgettable night of entertainment.


Films at the Fort is an outdoor film screening event that takes place in various picturesque locations around the world. From historical forts to lush parks, the organizers curate a selection of beloved films and screen them in an open-air setting, making it a one-of-a-kind movie-going experience for both locals and visitors alike. The event has gained immense popularity and is now a highly anticipated annual affair in many regions.

The selection of films shown at Films at the Fort often includes a mix of classic masterpieces and contemporary favourites. This deliberate curation allows attendees to relive their cherished memories and introduces younger generations to cinematic gems that have stood the test of time.


From classic films like Dirty Dancing (August 5) to films that have won the prestigious Palme d'Or award, like Triangle of Sadness (August 12), it's a busy month for film fans. There are also coming-of-age pictures such as My Girl (August 19), riveting thrillers such as Full Time ( August 18), and love dramas such as The Notebook (August 9). The full schedule can be seen here; just remember to book early because Glenfiddich Films at the Fort always sells out quickly.


Films at the Fort is a testament to cinema's enduring allure and the power it holds to bring people together. Combining the nostalgia of classic films, the beauty of nature, and the sense of community, this open-air cinematic experience offers an unforgettable evening under the stars. As the credits roll and the audience disperses, they carry memories of a magical night, eagerly awaiting the next edition of this remarkable event that celebrates the art of storytelling in its purest form.


Each ticket (starting at $42.80) includes a refreshing Glenfiddich drink, which is the ideal way to start the night. A fully equipped bar with drinks including cocktails, beer, wine, and soft drinks - all at reasonable pricing.


You can either bring your own food or order from The Providore's carefully prepared menu if you get hungry. While gourmet popcorn ($8) is available, you can also order a hand-stretched parma ham pizza ($24) or a substantial grass-fed beef burger with provolone cheese ($25.50). Alternatively, select a charcuterie or cheese platter ($25.50) to share.
