Tribeca Drive Movies In at Rockefeller Center, New York City, NY

Tribeca Enterprises, the company that brings the famous Tribeca film festival to New York every year, is introducing a new series of outdoor movie events. Spurred by the overwhelming response to the outdoor cinema events that are presented during the annual May festival, Tribeca has decided to give cinema under the stars its own place on their events schedule. For four nights in June, a 30 ft by 50 ft outdoor movie screen will be set up in front of 30 Rockefeller Plaza for this event, which will feature a variety of independent movies, including some New York premieres. A continuous loop of independent movie shorts will play during the days of this event, between 8:30 AM and midnight on a separate screen set up at the centers observation deck. Of course, presented at the Rockefeller Plaza, these events are not true drive-in movies, but the atmosphere is recreated with a few model cars for select audience member to be seated in to enjoy the show. Popcorn and drinks will be available for purchase, and the show will go on, rain or shine, with the drive-in opening at 6PM nightly and movies beginning at 9PM.
