Floating Cinema: Outdoor Movies While Sailing on the Bay (SF)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Red and White Fleet

Get ready for the coolest movie night in San Francisco—because we’re pretty sure we have the only sailing movie theater on the planet. Seriously. This holiday season, Red and White Fleet is teaming up with San Francisco’s iconic Roxie Theater to bring you a film experience you won’t find anywhere else.

If you’re searching for fun things to do in San Francisco at night with family and friends, this is one to put at the top of your list.​

Our hybrid-electric vessel ENHYDRA cruises quietly through the Bay, creating the perfect open-air movie setting with the San Francisco skyline as your backdrop. It’s totally unique and one of our most-loved holiday cruises every year.

Choose from indoor or outdoor seating, with screens placed throughout the vessel so you won’t miss a moment. Sit back, bundle up, and enjoy—popcorn and non-alcoholic hot drinks are taken care of. We’ve also got a full cocktail bar with tasty drinks available for purchase.

It’s a movie night like no other. Book your tickets and join us on the Bay for a magical holiday evening with Red and White Fleet and The Roxie!
