Tours & Attractions

About

An outdoor patio screening room operates from a Goldfinch Street courtyard in Mission Hills, where Cinema Under The Stars projects a rotating slate of classic Hollywood titles and recent first-run films onto a covered open-air screen with heated lounge seating. The outdoor courtyard format pairs vintage and classic film screenings with table service drinks and snacks served during the show, a dinner-and-a-movie evening on the same Goldfinch Street block as the cocktail program at Bar by Red Door. Programming leans heavily on golden-age studio pictures — Hitchcock, Bogart, Hepburn, Wilder — interleaved with recent indie releases and seasonal holiday classics. Heated patio chairs, blankets on cool nights, and a covered roof structure keep the venue running through San Diego's marine-layer evenings rather than canceling around weather. The same event-venue infrastructure that hosts the nightly screenings also handles private film rentals and small-group buyouts, a format closer to the ticketed-event model at FruitCraft - Winery, Distillery & Event Venue than to a standard multiplex showtime. Premiere-night specialty programming is the venue's most produced format — themed evenings built around a single director or genre, with curated double features, introductory remarks, and matched menu pairings served on the patio.
