Horror classic under the open sky at the Kunstverein Braunschweig
With Summer Cinema - Scream, a film evening that combines cult status, summer air, and goosebumps kicks off in Braunschweig. On July 17, 2026, the garden of the Kunstverein Braunschweig at Lessingplatz will be transformed into an atmospheric open-air cinema experience with a strong nostalgia factor.
An evening for film fans and summer nights
The opening with Scream focuses on suspense, pop culture, and a special audience mood. The summer cinema has established itself as a staple in the summer program in Braunschweig and has been bringing film classics to the screen for years in a relaxed outdoor atmosphere.

The Kunstverein as a strong framework
The Kunstverein Braunschweig has been a defining institution in the city since 1832 and is considered a renowned place for contemporary art and cultural exchange.

This is what the summer cinema feels like
Those who take a seat here experience not an ordinary cinema, but a real event experience under the open sky. Blankets, camping chairs, and snacks characterize the scenery, along with conversations before the film starts, soft murmurings, and the special tension when the light slowly dims and the film begins. This is Braunschweig summer culture with a clear target audience approach: accessible, open, and highly recognizable.

The location is centrally located at Lessingplatz 12, making it easy to reach by public transport as well as by foot or by bike. Parking spaces are available in the courtyard of the Kunstverein.
