Kino Mond & Sterne
Our personal favourite – make sure you head in early as the seats here fill up fast. This is Munich’s oldest open air cinema, located at the ampitheatre Seebühne in Westpark. This is our top spot to catch the latest summer blockbusters and Oscar nominees.

Cost: Tickets are 9€ or 11€ for a double feature
Kino am Olympiasee
Located in the Olympiapark – relax on one of the comfy deckchairs or spring for a 2 person loveseat and enjoy. If you’re not feeling super confident with your German, this cinema is a great shout as they also run a lot of English film options.

Cost: Tickets start at 9.50€ for picnic seating, 13.50 EUR and up for seating

Drive In Kino Aschheim
Dial it back old school and literally park up at this drive-in. You won’t be stranded, nor branded a fool (bonus points for the reference)
