All of NYC is descending outdoors this summer, and Paramount+ Movie Nights in Brooklyn are part of the al fresco fun.
From Greenpoint down to Coney Island, the borough’s best green spaces and warm-weather hotspots will transform into an open-air theater come June, and we’re very excited to fetch our picnic blankets out of the closet for the occasion.
And this year’s lineup has just about anything and everything — cult classics, nostalgia-fueled favorites, action flicks, and kid-friendly picks. Ready to see what’s on the schedule?
Paramount+ Movie Nights in Brooklyn
From the beach to the park, this series is making its way all over the city, so there’s plenty of opportunity to see something up your alley. The participating locations are Prospect Park, McCarren Park, Coney Island, and Fort Greene Park.
Keep in mind, although the screenings are free, RSVP is required.

And, should you want to take your viewings out to sea, The Intrepid’s Free Friday Movie Nights will showcase “Mysteries From the Deep: Underwater Archaeology.”
