Only at the Traverse City Film Festival can you experience movies sitting right smack dab out in the middle of the Bay. Watch stars on the screen under stars in the sky! We’re partnering with our friends at the Nauti-Cat to offer a special opportunity for film lovers with sea legs.
Set sail into the sunset to enjoy a great film in a simply unparalleled setting. We’ll head out on the largest sailing catamaran on the Great Lakes each night with a projector, screen, and popcorn in tow. Behold the Bay’s stunning vistas, and enjoy an outstanding film — an evening that truly encompasses the best of all that Traverse City offers. If you keep a bucket list, this should be on it!
Depart at 9:45 pm every night of the festival from the gas dock in Clinch Marina.
