Do you feel that, New York? That long-awaited seventies-and-sunny forecast has things really feeling like summer in NYC <\/a>these days and that’s got us in the mood for an open-air movie. Thankfully, outdoor movie<\/a> season is nearly here and one of the best settings for an al fresco flick is back hosting a fresh slate of free movies for summer 2026.<\/p>\n

Beginning next month, Seaport Cinema<\/a>\u00a0outdoor movies will again be taking place on the Heineken Riverdeck at Pier 17<\/a>\u00a0(89 South Street), running every Tuesday night at sundown around 8 p.m. with stunning waterfront views of the Brooklyn Bridge and movie-themed concessions. The seasonal tradition kicks off on Tuesday, July 21 with the Nicolas Cage-led caper National Treasure, followed by a string of beloved comedies including She’s The Man (July 28), Legally Blonde (August 4) and 13 Going on 30 (August 11).<\/p>\n

Things get romantic later in August with screenings of Crazy Rich Asians (August 18) and Dirty Dancing (August 25), before the summertime series finishes off on September 8 with the sporty biopic King Richard, starring an Oscar-winning Will Smith as Serena and Venus Williams’ father-slash-coach\u00a0Richard Williams.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As usual, every screening will be free and open to the public, with entry on a first-come, first-served basis. And given the outdoor nature of the series, attendees are encouraged to bring their own blankets to sit on. You are also allowed to bring your own food,\u00a0or order from on-site partners like Malibu Farm. There will also be a dedicated Heineken Zone, complete with reserved seating and a bucket of Heineken brews, available for $25; tickets will be on sale at The Seaport website<\/a>. Check out the full Seaport Cinema lineup below.\u00a0<\/p>\n
