The Sunken Garden

With an average summer high temperature hovering around approximately 72-77 degrees, we can hardly blame you for wanting to get outside and absorb as much of the amazing weather as you can while you’re here in Santa Barbara! While there are a number of amazing outdoor attractions to choose from, if you’re looking for something that’s a little more relaxing while providing entertainment perfect for the entire family, then we recommend checking out the Sunken Garden Film Series.

Enjoy a Beautiful Night Out with a Movie

The Sunken Garden Film Series takes place normally twice a week: Wednesday evenings at 7:30 PM in UCSB’s Campbell Hall, as well as Friday evenings at 8:30 PM in the Sunken Garden. This created an atmosphere that is incredibly fun as guests are more than welcome to bring blankets and chairs to create their very own picnic! Or if you feel like eating out there will be a few amazing local vendors on site offering “Dinner & a Movie” deals, such as Los Arroyos Mexican Restaurant. There are few things that are more fun for the entire family here in Santa Barbara than enjoying a movie with a picnic under the stars. This is one of the fan favorite things to do in Santa Barbara!
