Your Guide to America250 Movie Events

Bring your community together through experiences they’ll remember. Start with patriotic pre-show activities, add themed concessions for a fun twist, and build excitement with a movie series throughout the year. Pair these with smart marketing tactics and local partnerships to boost attendance, create buzz and secure lasting support.

Legal Screenings Made Easy

Anytime a movie is shown outside a private home, you’re legally required to obtain a public performance license – even if the event is free to attend.

As the licensing partner for major Hollywood studios, Swank Motion Pictures makes it easy to legally show movies in your community – and to host an event that’s impactful, memorable and fully supported each step of the way.

“Movie events have helped bring some community events that our families can take part in at no cost to them. We feel these events are helping to bring back some civic and community pride to our area.”

“Movies in the park are a great community event that brings friends and families together to make memorable moments out in the park, under the stars. My favorite part of our events is hearing people react to the movies with laughs, gasps and cheers together, something you just don't get at home watching movies.”
