Open-Air Cinema in Upper Franconia
The Fränkischer Kinosommer is a travelling open-air cinema series that visits several towns and communities in Upper Franconia every summer — including Coburg, Bad Rodach, Kronach, and other locations besides Neustadt bei Coburg. The organizer is Radio Eins in cooperation with local municipalities and sponsors. The Neustadt venue is one of the most traditional locations in the series.
Villeneuve-sur-Lot Leisure Park
The venue in Neustadt is the Villeneuve-sur-Lot leisure park — named after its twin town in the south of France — with a spacious lawn, benches, and a stage. After dark, the mobile big screen is set up, and the audience makes themselves comfortable on blankets, camping chairs, or the existing benches. Admission is from 8 p.m., and the film starts around 9 to 9:30 p.m., depending on sunset.
Program from Current Cinema
Mostly current feature films from the previous season are shown — a mix of German productions, international mainstream, and occasional arthouse cinema. The program is published every year in early summer and reacts to the current film market. Before each screening, there is a short introduction, as well as food and drink stands on the lawn.
Coburg Region and the Free Cinema Concept
Free admission is the hallmark of the Fränkischer Kinosommer and is made possible by local sponsors. This low barrier makes the festival particularly accessible — families, seniors, and film fans from all over the Coburg region come together over the four evenings. The screening will still take place in case of rain (with rain gear); cancellation only occurs in case of an official severe weather warning.
