Summer Movies on the Beach Tahoe City 2025
You’ve seen the romantic comedy movies that always seem to have the main characters watch a movie in the park. Fun right?
So here is your opportunity to experience an outdoor movie, not in the park, but right on the water’s edge of beautiful Lake Tahoe!
If you’ll be in the greater North Lake Tahoe – Truckee area on any Wednesday between June 25 through August 13, 2025, check out the Commons Beach area in Downtown Tahoe City at dusk for an amazing outdoor movie experience!
This is a local summer favorite and if it isn’t on your bucket list of summer things to do in Tahoe, you need to add it!
These type of experience doesn’t happen in every community. This is your chance to be outside, enjoy our summer evening, watch the Alpenglow cover Lake Tahoe at dusk and then spend a couple of hours watching a movie on the big blow-up screen, with the shore of Lake Tahoe right next to you!
If you haven’t been to an outdoor movie recently in a park, or in our case, one set on the beach on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe, put this event on your summer list of things to do this year!
The fun starts early in our area, with Waterfront Wednesdays. The beach and lawn area has fun events all day long, starting at 12 noon to 9 p.m. at Commons Beach.
There will be local food, artisans, and then the day will end with a fun night under the stars with a movie on the beach.
All of the Wednesday night Tahoe City movies on the beach begin around dusk (check your phone weather app to find out when dusk is on the night you’ll be going) at Commons Beach in downtown Tahoe City,

Here are some Suggested Movie Going Tips:
Movie Attendees are encouraged to bring the following:
- Chairs Only low back chairs are allowed. However, if you bring a high back chair (I get it, not everyone can easily get up and down into a low-backed beach chair these days, I’m one of them) you will have to sit on the side, or in the back of the viewing area.
- Bring sleeping bags/beach towels (small plastic tarp to put under them) if you’ll be on the ground. Remember the ground most likely will be damp, so make sure you have the right things to put down on the ground for an enjoyable evening.
- Bring blankets and jackets (our summer evening and nights will become cool and if a breeze comes up off the lake, things will really cool down fast).
- The fun is starting at 12 noon with Waterfront Wednesdays, but the if you can only do the movie, things start around 7 p.m. If you arrive early you can watch them set up the movie screen. You’ll get some people watching time in along with seeing the incredible Alpenglow over Lake Tahoe!
- Snacks There may be food truck/concession sales, but you are allowed to bring your own snacks. If you’re on a diet, you can still stay on track and enjoy the movie. It’s nice if you can support the local vendors, but you have some options.
- Movies begin at dusk. (Check your weather app on your phone for the time dusk will begin for the date you are going to attend, as dusk is earlier the later we go into the summer season)
- Bring a flashlight so you can make sure you’ve packed everything up and have an easy walk back to your car with light when the movie is over.
Come out and enjoy a beautiful summer evening in Tahoe City out underneath the stars and watch a free movie on the beaches of Lake Tahoe this year!
