About Cinema on the Shore
Cinema on the Shore brings a weekend-long programme of Scottish and international films to buzzing Leith shore! Enjoy pop-up drinks and food from local vendors, music and a packed selection of movies screened outdoors to suit everyone.
This year, our programme explores stories of seaside communities and folklore, and high-seas adventures - an outdoor cinema experience that ties in with the incredible, maritime location of Leith’s shore area.
From animated shorts, to thought-provoking documentaries and well-loved, cult movies, our family-friendly selection of films brings together emerging young filmmakers and Oscar-winners, drama, comedy and thrills.
