Sunset Cinema presented by Coca-Cola

Sunset Cinema presented by Coca-Cola is our free annual outdoor movie series that takes place in Sculpture Park. In partnership with Denver Film, every summer is dedicated to films that celebrate a particular genre, director, art form or theme. We also bring in local partners to help us curate the experience with activities, photo environments, food trucks, craft cocktails and more.

This year the outdoor film series is celebration of animation, offering adventures spanning the entire genre and promising a favorite for every fan. These five selections will take us to fantastical lands, from the mind of Wes Anderson to the Spider-Verse, complete with a cast of captivating characters, international intrigue and super-sized superhero escapades.

Before each screening, sit back, relax and enjoy a showcase of work from CU Denver's Digital Animation Center students. No movie night in the park would be complete without themed photo booth experiences and lawn games plus food trucks, drinks and other cinema snacks available for purchase.

All events are FREE, but please register on Eventbrite by using the "MORE INFO" buttons below. 

Limited seating will be available on a first come, first serve basis. Arrive early and enter before 7 p.m. for your chance to win a VIP seat upgrade and prize pack from Coca-Cola at each screening!
