What’s On

Cinema

Greece watches films outdoors in summer and indoors in winter, and both are worth doing.

Summer open air cinemas

The therina, open air cinemas, are a genuine Greek institution. Deck chairs, a bar, a jasmine covered courtyard and a film under the stars, with a break halfway through. Films are shown in the original language with Greek subtitles, so English language films play in English. Screenings start around sunset and later shows run to about 23:00. Pair it with the free old town walk

When: Roughly May to late September, weather permitting.
Annual fixture

Cine Orfeas, Corfu Town

Corfu Town's cinema, on Gerasimou Aspioti. General admission around 9.50 euro, reduced around 8 euro when last checked. Films in the original language with Greek subtitles.

When: Year round, indoor and outdoor screenings by season.
Confirmed

Free municipal open air screenings

Central Corfu Municipality has run free open air film nights for several summers, in Corfu Town at the Upper Square, Faliraki, San Giacomo and Anemomilos, and out in villages including Pelekas, Sinarades, Doukades and Kinopiastes. Posters go up locally rather than online, so ask at your accommodation or watch the local press. More things that cost nothing

When: Summer, typically to the end of September. Not yet confirmed for the current season.

The winter cinema season

When the open air cinemas close for the year the indoor screens take over, and this is when the arthouse and festival films arrive. Same rule on language: original audio, Greek subtitles.

When: October to April.
