Grab some popcorn: Pittsburgh Outdoor Movie guide

Now that we’re finished with the cold, long winter, it appears that summer has finally arrived in Pittsburgh.

For Pittsburghers, warmer temperatures mean that there are more opportunities to go outside, something that residents have been longing for all year. As a result, outdoor movies have become very popular during the summer months.

Pittsburgh’s Cinema in the Park series returns to its seven locations: Lawrenceville, Brookline Memorial Park, Flagstaff Hill in Schenley Park, Grandview Park in Mt. Washington, Highland Park, Riverview Park, or West End/Elliott Overlook. There are also “Rooftop Shindigs” happening on top of the garage at Theater Square downtown.

So grab a lawn chair or blanket. Here is a list of all of the locations and dates of outdoor movies being shown around Pittsburgh.
