Hot dogs at Coney Island, piragua on every corner, and movies in Bryant Park—now entering its 24thyear, HBO’s Bryant Park Summer Film Festival presented by Bank of America has become a bonafide NYC tradition. Every Monday night from the middle of June to just before Labor Day, thousands of movie-loving New Yorkers pour into the public midtown landmark for a (totally free!) night with a Hollywood classic under the stars. Recent summers have brought awesome screenings of popular favorites like Saturday Night Fever, The Shining and Casablanca, and this year’s line-up offers yet another season of great outdoor cinema.
In advance of tomorrow’s official Film Fest Lineup Reveal, which will be happening on the Fountain Terrace from 11:30am until 3pm and will feature live music by The Engagements and free giveaways, Time Out New York is excited to bring you an exclusive advance look at this year’s schedule!
