Movie Nights
Feature films under the stars on the big screen
Bryant Park Movie Nights presented by Verizon returns on August 23! Ten movies, selected in collaboration with Vulture, will be screened this summer on Monday and Tuesday evenings through September 28. Bring a blanket and sit on the lawn to enjoy great food, friends, and a feature film. Lawn and food and wine concessions open 5pm; film begins at sunset.
The series kicks off with Vulture’s fan-favorite pick Clueless! This year Movie Nights can boast significant firsts: screenings on Monday and for the first time, Tuesday evenings; and a first-of-its-kind Broadway to Film series with three movies that have productions returning to Broadway this fall, MOULIN ROUGE!, The Phantom of the Opera, and Mrs. Doubtfire. Bonus: these events will include special surprise guest appearances! Stay tuned for the full lineup and attendance protocol.
