— Weather & comfort

A summer eveningthat always goes ahead.

We watch outside — that's part of it. With the right layer of clothing and a good mood, every night, rain or shine, becomes one to remember.

Rain? No problem.

The festival generally goes ahead in the rain. Only unsafe weather forces us to change plans.

Dress warmly

It cools down in the forest faster than you think. An extra sweater or jacket is always a good idea.

Closed shoes

It's a forest meadow. Sneakers or sturdy shoes are far more comfortable than flip-flops.

Leave the umbrella at home

A poncho or rain jacket keeps you dry and the view clear for others. Win win.

— Accessibility

Welcome — however you get to us.

We do our best to let everyone enjoy a film night worry-free. Have specific needs? Let us know and we'll think along with you.

Wheelchair accessible

The grounds are wheelchair accessible. There is a dedicated flat spot at the front for wheelchair users and companions.

Golf cart service

For visitors with limited mobility a golf cart runs between the entrance and the forest meadow — no long walk required.
