february on the rooftop
Houston's Rooftop Cinema Club enchants with February films to fall for, Black History classics, Oscar faves, and more
With cool temps here to stay (for a while), Houston's Rooftop Cinema ClubRooftop Cinema Club is back this February with on-theme showcases and screenings, tributes to Black History Month and the Oscars, and a perfect Valentine's Day date spot.
Fans of film al fresco can head to the rooftop in Uptown’s BLVD Place (1700 Post Oak Blvd.) for scenic city views and a venue decked out for February. Never ones to disappoint with clever, quirky, and even silly themes, Rooftop has promised a return of Wooftop dog-friendly screenings and beloved Singalong nights.
The new schedule starts February 10 and runs through March 5. Tickets are on sale now online and range from $17.50 to $25.25. New in February, the venue has updated all seating to be Adirondack chairs (singles) and Adirondack loveseats only – all lounge chair seating was removed for the more preferred Adirondack seats, per Rooftop.
That means tickets now start at $17.50 per seat for all shows starting before 4:30 p.m. and $20.50 for all shows after that for a single Adirondack chair. Guests can add popcorn to their ticket for $4 extra, or upgrade to a loveseat plus popcorn for $7 extra.
As always, food and snacks are plentiful on-site, with beer, wine, and canned cocktails available for sale. In a nod to busy parents whose kiddos may have specific diets, guests can bring outside food (no outside drinks are permitted).
In keeping with the February love theme, the venue offers up rom-com classics like Pretty Woman, Grease, to modern favorites such as Ticket to Paradise and A Star is Born, and more.
For that perfect dinner-and-a-movie experience, Valentine’s Day shows include The Notebook and Love & Basketball. Book quickly, this love affair is sure to sell out.
Speaking of love fests, this year, Rooftop is offering a private Late Night Date Night booking on February 14 after the public screenings end — from 10:30 pm to 12:30 am — for up to 14 guests. The private RSVP is perfect for a romantic date for two, a group of friends and family (Galentine's, anyone?), or even a wedding proposal.
Fans can book the Valentine's Day slot for $1,111, which includes choice of movie from a short list curated by the Rooftop team, unlimited popcorn, candy and soda for each guest, and four bottles of champagne. Those interested can email shari@rooftopcinemaclub.com with the email subject “Late Night Date Night: Valentine’s Day Edition.”
Girls who just wanna have fun that week can celebrate Galentine’s Day date night on February 13 to watch the ultimate lady squad goals flick, Bridesmaids. (Doors open at 7 pm; film starts at 8 pm.)
In honor of Black History Month, the club will screen titles from impactful Black filmmakers and artists such as The Woman King, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Love Jones, and Poetic Justice.
Oscar fans can look forward to Awards Week at Rooftop Cinema Club, where some of the best films of 2022 will captivate audiences once again.
