This is my favorite outdoor cinema spot in Frankfurt. Well, technically it’s located in Offenbach, the often unloved city next to Frankfurt.

From academy award winners to lesser known alternative movies, the choice is yours! The setting is an urban industrial ruin in the background, free-range sheep on the right and an alternative bar / restaurant to the left.

Hafenkino is one of my favorite places in summer — it’s less crowded and still mostly only known to locals. Please check their website for the daily program and weather forecast. On a rainy day they would normally move the screen to the indoor location.

Getting there from the city center is easy and, on a sunny day, also a beautiful walk along the river.

Tickets are available also online, but you should get there as early as possible — it´s free seating!

Most of the movies are in the original language (often English), called “OMU” in German, with subtitles.
