Cinema al lago - Lugano's lake cinema festival

"Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore."
Judy Garland as Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, 1939


What could be more romantic (and dramatic at the same time) than watching the "King's Speech" under a stary sky looking onto San Salvatore and Monte Bré on a warm summer evening.  The season of "Cinema al Lago" has begun this week and every year this legendary outdoor cinema on large screen by Lugano's Lido shows spectacular and fascinating films on a 300m2 screen. 34 events, good food and drink accompanied by a relaxed atmosphere invite you to an unforgettable cinema experience under the Ticinese night sky as Italian contemporary comedies mix with Hollywood's Oscar winning movie epics.


Doors open at 20:30 right next to the entrance of Lugano's lido. Tickets can be bought at the Lugano Tourismo office, Palazzo Civico, Coop City or online here. But hurry seats are selling out rapidly! Price: CHF 15.-


Please click here to view the "Cinema al Lago" programme from June 29th through August 4th, 2011.
The only setback is that all films are shown in the Italian version, buy hey, that just makes it sound more romantic!!! ;)
