The Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy, along with Syfy TV, just announced their 16th annual free summer movie line-up starting in July! Woo! Summer really is right around the corner.
For the sixth year in a row, the movie screenings will happen at Harbor View Lawn at Pier 1, allowing movie-goers not only some of the best classic movies of all time, but views of the Manhattan skyline and a breeze off the East River.
These free movies will be screened every Thursday night for eight weeks, July 9 through August 27. The theme this year is movies that take place within 24 hours.
DJs from Brooklyn Radio will be spinning before each movie showing, along with short films curated by BAMcinematek.
The New York Amateur Astronomer’s Association will also be there to help viewers scan the skies with telescopes provided by Syfy. Music starts at 6 p.m., and the movies start at sundown. Be sure to get there early, since seating fills up fast.
