A grand social event in some of the city's most incredible parks, NYC Parks' 'Movies Under the Stars' is one of the great things to return to the city following the pandemic. Weather permitting, families, friends, and solo moviegoers all gather for an unforgettable experience that brings the memories of drive-in theaters of old back to life.
Not to mention the killer selection, ranging from the past year's hottest releases (Spider-Man: No Way Home, Encanto, and Space Jam: A New Legacy), all the way to older favorites like Before Sunrise, and Breakfast at Tiffany's.
