San Francisco’s free outdoor movie tradition is back with a full season for 2026. The Sundown Cinema series has just announced its lineup, bringing family-friendly films to parks across the city from June through October. All screenings are free and open to the public, with movies beginning around sunset. The events typically draw large crowds, so arriving early is recommended to secure a good spot. Guests are welcome to bring blankets and low-back chairs, and outside food and drinks are generally permitted, subject to park rules. Attendees can RSVP in advance for a chance to win access to a reserved seating section near the screen. One lucky winner at each screening will also receive their Amazon Wish List, valued up to $1,000.
