Rooftop cinema in Skybar Mr. Sato

Event

OPEN AIR CINEMA AT HOTEL GENT 

Experience a unique open-air cinema this summer on the rooftop terrace of Hotel Gent. On August 24, 25, and 26, our skybar will be transformed into an atmospheric open-air cinema where young and old can enjoy the finest films under the starry sky. 

Over the course of three days, six film screenings are on the program, with a varied selection for both families and film lovers. Take a seat on our cozy rooftop terrace, enjoy the beautiful view over Ghent, and experience a movie experience you won't soon forget. Appropriate snacks and drinks will be provided during every screening so you can enjoy a complete evening out without a care in the world. 

Do you want the ultimate cinema experience? Then reserve one of our exclusive VIP Front Row seats for the best view of the screen. 

Furthermore, Hotel Gent makes your visit extra comfortable with free parking during the event. This way, you don't have to worry about parking in the city center and can fully enjoy your evening. 

Would you like to turn your movie night into a complete culinary experience? Combine your visit with dinner at Restaurant Cocotte or an Italian evening at Limoncello, both located in Hotel Gent. 

Whether you are looking for an original date night, a cozy outing with friends, or a fun activity with the whole family, this rooftop cinema at Skybar Mr. Sato offers an unforgettable summer experience for everyone. 

Book your seats in advance and discover the full film program. The capacity of the rooftop terrace is limited, and the most popular screenings often sell out quickly. 

We look forward to welcoming you for three magical summer evenings full of film, atmosphere, and conviviality above the Ghent skyline.
