Two men stand side by side; one looks shocked with hands on his cheeks, while the other, in a striped shirt and white cap, smiles confidently. The title “The Birdcage” appears in bright yellow letters.

About Street Food Cinema

During select weekend nights this summer and fall, bring a picnic blanket and head over to the Autry lawn to watch your favorite movies projected on the biggest screen. Some of the city’s best food trucks and local bands will be on hand. Street Food Cinema is among the Autry’s partners, presenting films on the lawn. For more information and ticket sales, visit StreetFoodCinema.com

Can I bring my own chair? 

Guests may bring low chairs (max 6 inches off the ground). Chairs with legs must be placed in the designated “Chair Section” along the perimeter of blanket seating. Taller chairs are only permitted at the far edges to avoid blocking views. SFC staff will be available if you need assistance. Autry Members with a reservation receive two lawn chairs for use during the movie, while supplies last.

We’re excited to announce a fully cashless experience at concessions, bars, and check-in—just tap, swipe, or scan with your card or digital wallet for a fast, contactless, and hassle-free transaction. 

Where can I park?
