Tribeca Festival is coming to a neighborhood near you with our Borough to Borough programming! In partnership with Bloomberg Philanthropies, we’re bringing free film screenings with 40-foot state-of-the-art LED mobile cinemas to parks in Queens, Brooklyn and the Bronx. To ensure that our public gatherings are in full compliance with COVID-19 protocols, we’re working closely with the New York State Department of Health.
Grab your picnic blanket and your nearest and dearest to our outdoor screenings. Expect new premieres, family-friendly films and Black classic retrospectives as part of our specially selected movies. We’re also highlighting Puerto Rican films to celebrate the community’s art, culture and long-standing imprint in this city.
