Premiere Outdoor Movies • Dec 12, 2019

Outdoor movie nights are a fun way that family and friends can enjoy watching movies. Living in Florida there are nearly year-round options to enjoy a little evening time outside during the holidays. The holiday movie options are endless. Below we will list some holiday favorites that you are sure to enjoy at your next movie night this holiday season!

Holiday Movie Options

For Families:

  • Elf. “Elf” is a favorite holiday film featuring Will Ferrell as a man raised by Santa and his elves at the North Pole. Ferrell’s character, Buddy, engages in hilarious antics, falls in love and spreads Christmas joy throughout the city. A must watch!
  • Dr. Seuss The Grinch . This 2018 retelling of the classic Dr. Seuss story about the green grump who wants to stop Christmas is packed full of fun and laughs.
  • The Polar Express. Based on the best-selling book, this modern classic follows a young boy on his journey to the North Pole where he discovers just how real Santa's holiday magic is.
  • Home Alone . A full-fledged face-off between eight-year-old Kevin and a couple of witless burglars when he accidentally was left home alone while the family leaves for vacation.

Young Children's:

  • Frosty The Snowman . A living snowman and a little girl struggle to elude a greedy magician who is after the snowman's magic hat.
  • Rudolf The Rednosed Reindeer. A misfit reindeer and his friends look for a place that will accept them.
  • Elf On The Shelf: An Elfs Story . Chippy is assigned to a family that includes a boy who is questioning the magic of Christmas. When Chippy finds the assignment a bit challenging, his good friends, Santa, and an unexpected child help him remember why his job is important!

Romantic Holiday Movies:

  • Love Actually. Regardless of if you are drawn to Liam Neeson's heartwarming struggle as a single dad, or Hugh Grant's love affair with a saucy employee, there's a little something for everyone in this now-beloved holiday classic
  • The Holiday. British country girl Kate Winslet and California career woman Cameron Diaz swap live during the holidays in hopes of mending their broken hearts.
  • Serendipity. Last-minute Christmas shopping pays off for John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale in this sweet story about fate, friendship, and following your heart.
  • Four Christmases. One couple attempts to survive their rambunctious families in this comedy that unfolds over the course of one Christmas day.

Classic Holiday Movies:

  • A Christmas Carol. Watching the time-honored Charles Dickens classic about a miser who changes his tune after visiting with three ghosts, is a no-brainer.
  • A Christmas Story. If Ralphie Parker didn’t rattle off his desire for an “official Red Ryder, carbine action, 200-shot, range model air rifle, with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time,” did Christmas even happen.
  • Its A Wonderful Life. James Stewart as a man who gets a glimpse at what life would look like without him.
  • Miracle On 34th Street. Maureen O’Hara and John Payne star in the original film about that time New York City authorities committed a man to a mental facility because he thought he was Santa Claus.
