During the summer months, Portishead Open Air Pool transforms into one of the region's most unique cinema venues, where moviegoers can experience films under the stars in a stunning Art Deco setting.

The pool area becomes an atmospheric outdoor theatre, with the large screen set across the pool.

Attendees settle on the poolside terraces, enjoying everything from classic films to recent releases while the sunset casts a golden glow over the water.

The events combine cinema with the pool's celebrated tuck shop offerings, serving hot drinks, popcorn, and treats to create a perfect evening out and a BBQ.

These screenings have become a highlight of Portishead's summer calendar, often selling out quickly as locals and visitors alike are drawn to the novel experience of watching films in such a historic and atmospheric setting.

The gentle lapping of the pool water adds a unique soundtrack to the experience, making these cinema nights a distinctive blend of Portishead Lido's aquatic heritage and cultural entertainment.
