Summer movie nights are returning to Brooklyn\u2019s waterfront as Brooklyn Bridge Park<\/a> has announced the 2026 lineup for its annual Movies with a View series, presented by Persol.<\/p>\n

Now in its 26th year, the popular free outdoor movie series in Brooklyn Bridge Park will once again transform Pier 1\u2019s Harbor View Lawn into an open-air cinema overlooking the Manhattan skyline and New York Harbor. Organizers are also expanding the program this year with an additional family-friendly screening scheduled for September.<\/p>\n

Each screening at Pier 1 Harbor View Lawn begins at sunset, with the lawn opening at 6 p.m. Admission is free and available on a first-come, first-served basis.<\/p>\n

Eric Landau, Brooklyn Bridge Park president, acknowledged that the event\u2019s growth led to the expansion.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re really excited to expand the series this year, kicking off Fourth of July weekend, and adding an extra film night in September, perfect for family film night with the earlier sunset,\u201d he said. \u201cMovies With A View has grown into a beloved summertime experience for both New Yorkers and visitors, creating a shared sense of community through film against the backdrop of one of the city\u2019s most iconic outdoor settings.\u201d<\/p>\n
