The Shining to be shown at the Overlook Hotel filming location

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

One of the most iconic locations in horror history is the Overlook Hotel from director Stanley Kubrick's version of the Stephen King story THE SHINING. The filming location for the exterior shots of the hotel in the film was the historic Timberline Lodge in Government Camp, Oregon. Later this year, Kenny Caperton's ongoing film series On Set Cinema will be giving fans of THE SHINING the chance to watch the movie at the Timberline Lodge.

Here's the information on the On Set Cinema event: 

ON SET CINEMA: THE SHINING
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 1, 2019
Government Camp, Oregon • Timberline Lodge (aka The Overlook Hotel)

All work and no play makes you a dull boy. Come and play with us forever …and ever …and ever on Sunday, December 1st, 2019 at a very special ON SET CINEMA screening of THE SHINING! I will be showing the film at the National Historic Timberline Lodge …aka The Overlook Hotel in beautiful Mount Hood, Oregon. The Timberline Lodge sits high on the shoulder of one of the most iconic mountain peaks in the Pacific Northwest and served as the filming location for the exteriors of the infamous Overlook Hotel in Stanley Kubrick’s cinematic adaptation of Stephen King’s terrifying novel, The Shining!

This is an extremely rare public screening of the movie at Timberline and seating is limited. Fans will have access to the hotel grounds for the day, as well as the interior of the lodge (the Cascade dining room, Ram’s Head Bar & Restaurant, Wy’East Café, Y’Bar, history exhibit, gift shop, game room & more). I highly recommend staying overnight – On Set Cinema tickets holders will be emailed a discount code for Sunday night lodging. I highly suggest staying all night. Timberline also offers world class skiing and is the only ski resort in North America open all 12 months of the year! So grab your big wheels and prepare for total isolation …Mr. Torrance is waiting for you. 

• Location: Timberline Lodge – 27500 E Timberline Road, Government Camp, OR 97028
• Time: 6:30pm-9:30pm (screening starts at 7pm)
• Admission: $70 per person

On the way to the screening at the Timberline Lodge, On Set Cinema will also be hosting screenings of JASON LIVES: FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VI at the camp featured in the movie (that one is already sold out); IT FOLLOWS in a classroom and theatre featured in the movie; I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER in the venue where the Croaker Queen Pageant was held; and THE PROWLER in the inn where the dance and dorm room scenes were filmed. I wish I could go to all of these!
