'Yek Tasadof-e Sadeh' at the Filmoteca d’Estiu
The 2026 Filmoteca d’Estiu closes its edition with the screening of 'Yek Tasadof-e Sadeh', one of the standout films in the 'Top Criticism & Festivals 2025' cycle. This open-air cinema event, organised by the Institut Valencià de Cultura (IVC) in collaboration with Valencia City Council, takes place in a unique setting: the Palau de la Música Gardens, next to the old Turia riverbed.
Dates and times
The film will be screened on two nights:
- Thursday 27 August 2026, at 22:30.
- Friday 28 August 2026, at the same time.
The film lasts 105 minutes, and the box office and bar will open at 21:30 each day.
Tickets and access
Entry is free and no prior booking is required, though arriving early is recommended to secure a seat, as capacity is limited. Screenings take place on an open-air screen, so bringing a light jacket for summer evenings is advisable.
