Outdoor Cinema in Surrey 2025

Prices correct at the time of writing. Click through to each venue for up to date pricing and information.

One of our favourite things to do in the summer is go to an outdoor cinema. Sitting on a deckchair, beanbag or picnic rug and enjoying a movie in the great outdoors is such an experience and something that you can do as a couple, with friends or as a family.

I thought it would be nice to put together all the outdoor cinema options across Surrey to give you some inspiration for a day or night out, relaxing and watching a movie with some of your favourite people.
