This summer in Seattle, one of the many ways you can soak up the sun is at an outdoor movie screening, where you can sit in a lawn chair or on a blanket with food and drinks and check out a blockbuster or classic film. Below, you'll find 19 options, many of which start during the first week of July, and which range from lots of instances of the Lego Batman Movie and La La Land to more unconventional options like the Seattle Outdoor Cinema's 21+ lineup and Parental Advisory in Cal Anderson Park. See our complete movie times listings for other (indoor) films.
