Great question! FunFlicks® has 4-6 different screen sizes to choose from (depending on your location) but prices ranges from just $299 to $1999 & up depending on which screen you choose. 

Generally, showing a movie outdoors in a location other than your backyard will require a license. The Federal Copyright Act (Title 17, United States code, Public Law 94-553, 90 Stat. 2541) governs how copyrighted materials, such as movies, may be utilized publicly. Neither the rental nor the purchase or lending of a videocassette or DVD carries with it the right to exhibit such a movie publicly outside the home, unless the site where the video is used is properly licensed for copyright compliant exhibition.

This legal copyright compliance requirement applies to parks and recreation departments, colleges, universities, public schools, day care facilities, summer camps, churches, private clubs, prisons, lodges, businesses, etc. regardless of whether admission is charged, whether the institution is commercial or non-profit or whether a federal, state or local agency is involved.

The movie studios who own copyrights, and their agents, are the only parties who are authorized to license sites such as parks and recreation departments, businesses, museums, etc. No other group or person has the right to exhibit or license exhibitions of copyrighted movies.

Can we charge admission to our Outdoor Movie Night?

You can charge admission to your outdoor movie night, but just know that the licensing companies have different policies about charging admission to certain films and you will more than likely be required to split the proceeds of the admissions with the licensing company. You will need to contact the licensing company of the film you choose to discuss details with them regarding admissions.

Yes! Anything you can put on your television can be shown on our giant inflatable screens. Some great ideas for events around a screen rental include video gaming parties and live sporting events such as UFC fights, March Madness, and professional or NCAA football games.

Power requirements vary based on what size screen you choose, and if you added popcorn to your event. Typically 2 or 3 standard 15 amp circuits are needed to power everything. Many of our locations have optional generator service for an additional charge if you don’t have power at your movie night location.

FunFlicks will typically schedule an arrival time of 1 – 2 hours prior to your movie start time. Equipment can typically be setup in as little as 30-45 minutes depending on screen size and venue. Your FunFlicks® representative will work with you to schedule our arrival time at your movie night.

We do offer full-service popcorn packages at most locations. This means that we bring a theater-style popcorn machine and we will pop, bag and serve popcorn to your audience directly from our machines. What’s a movie night without popcorn!

Definitely! Many FunFlicks’ customers will work with local business to sponsor their movie night to help offset the cost. FunFlicks® will work with you and your sponsors to ensure we can promote your sponsors on our big screen during your movie night. We can also play your music through our great sound system as your audience is arriving for your movie night.

Yes, each of our independently owned & operated locations have insurance. Most locations will carry a minimum of $1,000,000 in liability coverage. Certificates of Insurance (COI) with additional loss payees are available for a small additional fee.

Rain and/or high winds can cause a movie night to be cancelled. FunFlicks offers a rain date guarantee in most locations around the country. Just ask your local office what their weather policy is for your specific event.
