This season, a new series of evenings continues that tradition, transforming the Terrazza Platani into an intimate open-air cinema for resident guests. As daylight fades over Lake Como and the first stars appear above the water, elegant lounges nestled beneath centuries old plane trees offer a front row seat to a selection of Italian cinematic classics, framed by candlelight and the quiet beauty of the lake.

Throughout the evening, a refined selection of sweet and savoury treats will be available to order and enjoy at leisure, from artisanal popcorn and gourmet focaccia to lobster rolls, salmon brioche, traditional gnocco fritto, Mediterranean supplì and delicate desserts. Signature cocktails, wines by the glass and a curated selection of beverages will likewise be available for purchase throughout the event. 

As Lake Como reflects the last light of day, candlelit lounges, irresistible bites to share and cocktails inspired by the silver screen set the scene for an evening celebrating the enduring charm of Italian cinema beneath an open sky.
