Movie Nights are almost always rain or shine, but:
- If it rains, the movie will go on and the lawn will be closed. Seating will be available in the gravel path surrounding the lawn, and throughout the park. Bring your umbrella!
- If there are thunderstorms, the movie will be delayed or cancelled.
- There are no rain dates for Movie Nights.
- Because there are no rain dates, we do not make a lawn or cancellation call until the day of the movie, and often later in the day. Conditions can quickly change; if weather is deemed dangerous, the park may close.
- Please follow our social media @bryantparknyc on Instagram and Twitter for Movie Nights lawn and weather updates!
Hester Street Fair brings the city’s best vendors to the Fountain Terrace each week, 4pm-8:30pm, to make your Movie Nights picnic the most delicious it can be .
Starting at 5pm, stop by our bar tent to the left of the screen for summer-ready drinks, featuring special offerings from Stout NYC.
