Time to ready your blankets and beach towels — Flicks on the Beach has returned to Coney Island for the summer.

This summer’s lineup includes a mix of beloved classics and recent releases, with something for everyone. And the screenings are free thanks to support from the Alliance for Coney Island, Rooftop Films, and NYC & Company.

The series will run through August 24, when, on each Monday, the beach becomes an open-air movie theater with a 40-foot inflatable screen set up near West 10th Street and the boardwalk. Film screenings will begin every Monday at dusk (around 8:30pm), but it’s a good idea to show up a little early to claim a choice spot.

Here’s the lineup:

  • July 13: The Grand Budapest Hotel
  • July 20: The Goonies
  • July 27: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
  • August 3: Big Hero 6
  • August 10: Mrs. Doubtfire
  • August 17: Guardians of the Galaxy
  • August 24: TBD
