About this event
Cinemas in the Sand returns to Casino Beach for one of Pensacola Beach's most beloved traditions: free outdoor movies at sunset on a giant screen in front of the Gulfside Pavilion. October's featured film is Toy Story 5, Pixar's newest chapter following Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and the beloved toy gang.
Bring a blanket or low beach chairs and settle in on the sand as the Gulf horizon glows with the last of the day's sun. Screenings are completely free, family-friendly, and walkable from the Pensacola Beach Boardwalk and nearby restaurants. Movies begin at sunset — arrive early for a good spot.
Weather may affect screenings. Check the Santa Rosa Island Authority's Facebook page or call (850) 932-2257 for night-of updates.
Best for: Families, couples, groups of friends, budget-conscious visitors
What to expect: A free sunset screening on the sand at Casino Beach. Bring a blanket or low beach chairs. The film begins at sunset. Nearby boardwalk restaurants make it easy to grab dinner beforehand.
Planning tip: Arrive 30–45 minutes before sunset to claim a good spot on the sand. Parking is available at Casino Beach lots. Check the SRIA Facebook page for weather cancellations.
