Bryant Park Movie Nights Announces Full Movie Lineup

Bryant Park has announced the full movie lineup in its iconic Bryant Park Movie Nights series, which will be returning this summer after being paused due to the pandemic. Entering the 27th season, the series is a welcome return to outdoor events in New York City. Due to popular demand, Bryant Park Movie Nights, presented by Verizon, will run on Monday and, for the first time, Tuesday evenings, from August 23rd through September 28th on the Bryant Park lawn. All films begin at sunset, with the lawn open at 5pm for picnicking. With the series starting later in the summer, an earlier sunset will encourage a broader audience to attend.

In addition to Verizon, season partners include Paramount+ and Dunkin'. The Movie Nights film lineup was curated in collaboration with media partner Vulture.
