CicloCinema sets the regional pattern: a travelling association rather than a fixed venue, with cycle-generators, inverter and battery, projector, sound system and screen all moved by cargo bike and trailers between screenings across Trentino, Piedmont and Ticino ¹. The fleet has changed size: the original 2018 design used ten bicycles, while the current homepage and a July 2026 municipal notice both give eight bicycles and eight cycle-generators ^2,3. Early promotional claims of "up to 3,000 W" from ten generators were marketing figures rather than specifications; documented audiences average around 115 per screening ^2,4,5,6.

The other screenings are recurring and small by design. ASSA Novara's municipal "Cinema a pedali sotto le stelle" ran five annual editions between 2021 and 2025 with the audience pedalling bikes mounted on stands and attendance capped at 50–70 ^7,8; Cinedehors, working with Mobile Green Power, has supplied the mountain-village screening at Sauze di Cesana every year from 2023 to 2026, pairing pedal power with solar generation ⁹.

Collettiva Trasforma ("Pedal Power," Milan, founded 2018) builds rather than screens: a 12-bike human-powered screen for a cultural centre's 2021 inauguration and a fully pedal-powered 240 W theatre production in 2022, both installations for other people's events, which is why its current activity is listed as uncertain ^10,11.
