Streaming services are great, but nothing will ever compare to the nostalgic experience of sitting in a movie theater. Beyond Cinema, an Australian-based film production company, has created an innovative solution that allows us to watch our favorite movies in a safe way. Known as the “floating cinema,” this fleet of private boats is coming to Austin for one week only in September. There will be snacks, drinks, and a big screen showing both first-run and classic films.

This fall, Floating Cinema is coming to Austin for one week only. From September 23-27, you can enjoy both nostalgic and first-run movies in a socially distanced "theater" of boats.

The cinema will consist of 12-24 boats, each holding up to eight people. You must purchase the entire boat to ensure only friends and family sit together.

As far as the films themselves, expect a mixture of classics and new releases. Exact titles will be announced once tickets go on sale.
