Tribeca Film Festival Announces Screenings Coming To Long Island
The film festival will be hosting a month of drive-in movies at Nickerson Beach.
LIDO BEACH, NY — The Tribeca Film Festival announced the lineup of movies it will be screening during its month-long drive-in at Nickerson Beach.
Instead of being canceled entirely, the film festival created Tribeca Drive-In: a showcase of films that would be screened at four drive-in locations across the country. There is one in California, one in Texas and two in New York, including at Nassau County's Nickerson Beach in Lido Beach.
Films will be screened four days a week at Nickerson Beach, on July 9 through 12, July 16 through 19, July 23 through 26 and July 30 through Aug. 12. Tickets to the Thursday screenings will be free for first responders and healthcare workers as thanks for all they've done during the coronavirus pandemic.
