Screen on the Green (Washington, D.C.)

Screen on the Green was an annual summertime outdoor film festival in Washington, D.C. hosted by HBO and Comcast. The free outdoor screenings were usually held on Monday nights in July and August and started at sunset (approximately 8:30 p.m.)

The movies were usually projected onto a theater-size portable screen on the National Mall between 7th and 12th Streets, Northwest. Organizers cancelled Screen on the Green in 2016 when HBO and Comcast ended their sponsorship of the event, stating that they needed their resources for other projects.
