About this event
Each Saturday night through the summer the Benfica parish sets up a screen in a different garden or square and shows a recent Portuguese or international feature under the stars. The 2026 run takes in Eran Riklis's Reading Lolita in Tehran, Rebecca Zlotowski's Vie privée and Kleber Mendonça Filho's O Agente Secreto, moving the audience around the neighbourhood week by week.
Why we picked it
Free, well-programmed neighbourhood cinema that repeats every Saturday across the window, giving Lisbon a dependable weekend evening option away from the tourist core.
Free entry
Admission is free, but subject to the capacity of each garden or square — arrive early for a seat.
