Format unconfirmed not counted above

These venues can project film, but the listings don’t say whether these shows are on film. Ask the venue before you go.

• The Charles Theatre, Baltimore (~50 mi): the Revival Series is “in DCP format (and from time to time on 35mm film).” Coming up: Curse of the Demon (Oct 24 11:30 AM, Oct 26 7 PM), Possession (Oct 29 9 PM), After Life (Oct 31, Nov 2), Sabotage (Nov 7, 9), I Shot Andy Warhol (Nov 12 9 PM), Vertigo (Nov 14 11:30 AM, Nov 16 7 PM), Out of the Past (Nov 21, 23, 26), Lolita (Nov 28 11 AM, Nov 30 7 PM), The King of Marvin Gardens (Dec 5, 7), City on Fire (Dec 10 9 PM). None of the film pages state a format. thecharles.com/movies/revival-series
• Rhizome DC microcinema, Takoma DC (~12 mi): first-Thursday series that sometimes uses 16mm. Thu Nov 5, 7 PM: Daniel Bachman, The Witness Tree. No format given. rhizomedc.org/microcinema
• Dune: Part Three, other 5/70 venues: in70mm.com still lists the standard 70mm engagements as “Cinemas TBD.” Other DC-area theaters (e.g., Regal Gallery Place, which ran The Odyssey in 70mm) may be added later. in70mm.com

Venue directory

Distances are approximate driving miles from central Northern Virginia.

Also checked, with no confirmed film screenings

• Smithsonian IMAX (Udvar-Hazy Airbus, Air & Space Lockheed Martin): Excluded at your request.
• Alamo Drafthouse – DC Bryant St, Crystal City, Loudoun, Woodbridge: All 4K digital laser. The Nov 8 The Beyond tour stop is a 4K restoration.
• Angelika Pop-Up Union Market: Classics series (Marilyn, B&W) doesn’t list a format, so it’s presumed digital.
• AMC Hoffman Center 22, AMC Potomac Mills, AMC Georgetown, Regal Majestic: Their summer 70mm Odyssey runs are over. Current listings are standard or laser digital.
• SNF Parkway Theatre (Baltimore) events calendar through Nov 28, Senator Theatre (incl. Rosemary’s Baby Oct 28–Nov 2): No film format given on any listing. Excluded.
• Suns Cinema, Miracle Theatre, Avalon Theatre, Cinema Arts Theatre (Fairfax), Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse: No film-print screenings announced.
• AFI Silver Silent Cinema Showcase titles not tagged “in 35mm” (e.g., Hula, Beau Geste, Queen Kelly, Faust, Nosferatu): Presumed digital, since AFI tags its film prints in the title.
• National Gallery – Wajda at 100 (Nov 14–28), Eyes on the Prize (Oct 24), TCB (Oct 25), Powwow People (Nov 1 & 29): All DCP or no film format given. Excluded.
• Freer / National Museum of Asian Art: Prince Achmed, Train to Busan, Pakeezah, First Light, The Thief of Bagdad (Nov 22, live piano), Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence: All DCP. Excluded.
• Library of Congress Packard Campus: The Phantom of the Opera (Oct 22), The War of the Worlds (Nov 10), The Cardboard Lover (Nov 19), Vampyr (Nov 20): Marked “(Digital)” by LoC. Excluded. (One aggregator lists The Cardboard Lover as 35mm, but LoC’s own listing says Digital.)
• LoC Mary Pickford Theater (Capitol Hill): No upcoming screenings posted.
• The Charles Theatre (Baltimore) revival series: Usually DCP, occasionally 35mm. None of the listed titles (Vertigo Nov 14/16, Out of the Past Nov 21–26, Lolita Nov 28/30, King of Marvin Gardens Dec 5/7, etc.) say which format.
• Rhizome DC microcinema (Takoma): The Nov 5 show (Daniel Bachman, The Witness Tree) doesn’t give a format. An aggregator row for “Nov 6, 2026” 16mm shorts links to a 2025 event, so it looks like a dating error. Excluded.
• Goethe-Institut, Hirshhorn, GWU, Georgetown, UMD Hoff Theater: No film-format screenings found.

Sources & caveats

• Every format and showtime comes from the venue’s own listings: AFI Silver’s ticketing feed (vista.afi.com), NGA calendar pages, the Library of Congress events pages and Now See Hear! blog, the Smithsonian NMAA/Eventive pages, and Angelika Mosaic’s showtimes page. Regal Gallery Place 70mm times come from Regal’s own showtimes page (regmovies.com). Analog Film DC and Da MoVies were used to cross-check.
• Library of Congress “(Film)”: LoC says the screening is a film print but doesn’t give the gauge. It’s almost always 35mm at Mount Pony, but that isn’t stated, so these get their own badge.
• Dune: Part Three: AFI lists 70mm with an Insider Screening Dec 15 and an Advance Screening Dec 17, opening Dec 18. Times aren’t posted yet. In70mm.com shows no IMAX 15/70 engagement in the DC/Baltimore area.
• Theaters sometimes swap a print for a DCP at the last minute when a print is damaged or delayed. Check the venue page before a long drive, especially to Culpeper.
• Venues post their schedules in waves. As of Oct 22: AFI through about Dec 1 (plus Dune), Angelika Mosaic through Nov 5, Regal Gallery Place through Oct 28, the Library of Congress through Nov 21, the National Gallery through Nov 29, the Freer through Dec 9.
