An inflatable movie screen is an inflatable framework with an attached projection screen. Inflatable screens are used for outdoor movies, film festivals, drive-in theaters, sports, social and other events which require outdoor projection.

The frame is typically inflated with the use of a high pressure blower. The blower continues to operate, ensuring the screen remains fully inflated. There are other types of inflatable screens that do not require a permanent inflation as they are virtually airtight and stay inflated without electricity for several days.[1]

In comparison to traditional and heavy steel constructions[2], inflatable screens can be set up only a few hours before the movie is to start and are taken down immediately after the movie screening. This can be ideal for vulnerable environments like parks or botanical gardens[3] and inner city locations with traffic in the daytime.

Inflatable screens reach sizes of up to 135 ft or 40 metres.[4].
