About Night Owls Backyard Cinema

Night Owls Backyard Cinema was created to turn ordinary backyards into unforgettable movie nights. What started as a simple idea quickly became something more—a way to bring people together through cozy, styled, and fully set-up outdoor cinema experiences.

Every setup is designed with intention. From the layout and lighting to the overall atmosphere, we focus on creating a space that feels special — not rushed, not generic.

We don’t just deliver equipment and leave. We handle everything from setup to teardown, making sure your night runs smoothly from start to finish. Whether it’s a birthday, date night, or a laid-back evening with friends, our goal is simple: create a movie night you’ll actually remember.

We are based in Calgary — serving backyards across the city and surrounding areas.
