As the days get longer and warmer, there's no reason you shouldn't be able to experience traditionally indoor activities, like going to the movies, in the fresh air. Luckily, there are tons of opportunities in Seattle this summer to lay out on a blanket (or a lawn chair, or the hood of your car) with your favorite snacks as you watch great films, including screenings of classics like The Big Lebowski and Back to the Future, and newer releases like Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Mary Poppins Returns. We've gathered them all below, including summer-long series at Marymoor Park, Peddler Brewing, and the Mural Amphitheatre. For even more seasonal activities, check out our outside calendar and our complete guide to outdoor live music this summer. Plus, visit our movie times listings for a complete list of indoor films.
