Movies With A View: Where to Watch Outdoor Movies in NYC

Aside from shopping on Fifth Avenue or walking across the Brooklyn Bridge, one of the most quintessential New York City experiences is watching a movie under the stars. Best of all—it’s free! No matter which borough you live in or what types of movies you prefer, there are plenty of opportunities to catch a Blockbuster favorite this summer—check out the full lineup below. Typically, most movies begin at sundown (approximately, 8:30 PM), but it’s best to arrive a few minutes early to secure a prime viewing spot. So grab your pals, snacks, and a bottle of wine, and get ready for an unforgettable summer of outdoor movies in NYC.
