    Three-digit temps are here, no doubt, but that’s not stopping locals from hitting the hottest rooftop in Uptown for seasonal hits. Rooftop Cinema Club Uptown ((1700 Post Oak Blvd. at BLVD Place) has released its new schedule that’s cool for summer.

    As always, the club promises theme events centered on our oppressive heat, summer love and zodiac signs, and even bookish fun. Favorites returning are the dog-friendly Wooftop series, the Singalong shows, and more.

    Features recent hits such as the Robert Pattinson-led Batman and The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. Potter fans can look forward to weekly Harry Potter screenings every Sunday in July and every Saturday in August to toast Harry Potter’s July 31 birthday. Anniversary screenings include a 25th anniversary screening of Con Air and the 40th anniversary of the beloved Lone Star State classic, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas.

    Here’s a look at some of the summer fun:

    Crazy for Swayze
    Houston’s beloved hometown star gets in a showcase of films in honor of what would’ve been his 70th birthday.

    The Heat is On
    In a witty nod to our soaring temperatures, the club is bringing the heat with summer classics such as Bad Boys, Mamma Mia!, and Dirty Dancing, and Do the Right Thing, Spike Lee’s seminal look at America on the hottest day of the year.

    Rooftop Romance
    August offers a lot to love with Romeo + Juliet, the Hollywood classic Casablanca, modern tales such as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Love Jones, Bridesmaids, and more.

    Leo Season
    Kicking off a new tradition, Rooftop celebrates signs of the Zodiac, starting with Leo on . July 23. Movies will star the club’s favorite cinematic Leos — including namesake Leo DiCaprio.

    Virgo Season
    Following Leo Season, Rooftop celebrates their favorite Virgos from August 23 through September 22.

    Summerween
    The club scares up some spooky fun with zany flicks such as Practical Magic, Death Becomes Her, and Hocus Pocus. More fun comes via Tales From the Hood, Friday the 13th, and Scream.

    National Book Lovers Day
    Bookish film fans can celebrate National Book Lover’s Day (August 9) with two iconic adaptations: Baz Luhrmann’s version of The Great Gatsby and Jonathan Demme’s unforgettable The Silence of the Lambs.

    Tickets range from $17.50 to $25.25 depending on the day of the week and choice of the venue’s new double Adirondack Love Seat, a single Adirondack, or Lounge Seat with or without popcorn.

    Fans can enjoy favorite concessions and snacks, an extensive menu of beer, wine, and canned cocktails to purchase on-site. Notably fans can bring outside food; no outside drinks are permitted.

    Find tickets, showtimes, and the full schedule of Rooftop summer films online.

    Toto is coming to Houston in August 2026.

    Three bands from the late 70s and early 80s — Toto, Christopher Cross, and The Romantics — are heading out on tour together with a stop at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands on August 7, 2026.

    The tour will run for 32 dates including one at the Germania Insurance Amphitheater in Austin on August 8. It starts in Bethel, New York, in July and ends in Toronto, Ontario, in August.

    Toto, best known for the hit so big it became a meme, "Africa," has had one of its strongest years in its 48-year history, according to a press release. In 2025 alone, their music has garnered more than a billion streams, with a weekly digital average of more than 20 million. "Africa" and "Hold The Line" have exceeded two billion and one billion streams, respectively, and have both gone at least triple platinum. Meanwhile, the majority of fans remain under 34 years old.

    Christopher Cross is a longtime friend of Toto and has collaborated with the group for more than 40 years. The two artists have toured extensively together. Cross became the first artist to win the "Big Four" awards at the Grammys for Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist, two of which were for "Sailing."

    Finally, The Romantics are known for a British-American hybrid of rock music, that is often featured in movies, such as “What I Like About You,” “Talking In Your Sleep,” and “One In A Million."

    Ticket sales begin Friday, December 12, at 10 am via totoofficial.com.
