movie screening

Cinema event showing

A movie screening is a showing of a film, typically at a theater or venue.

The term often implies a special or limited presentation rather than regular showings: advance screenings for critics, private screenings for investors, or test screenings to gauge audience reactions before wide release.

We got tickets to an early screening of the new Marvel film.
