Guide: Drive-in and outdoor movie events around NYC
Want a fun night out under the stars? There are plenty of places around New York City where you can watch a movie from the comfort of your own car or lawn chair/blanket! Check the websites because dates and times are subject to change.
Here are some tips before you head out:
  • Check event websites before heading out. Some venues may cancel movie dates due to inclement weather.
  • Arrive early, parking is sometimes limited and spots may fill up fast so be sure to get there early.
  • If events require tickets, make sure to get yours ahead of time, as they may sell out.
  • Check event websites on what you can and cannot bring.
