Boston 250 Movie Nights

In parks citywide, Bostonians can enjoy historic films under the night skies with this popular series.

Boston 250 is an initiative of the City of Boston and a variety of partners and sponsors who have joined together to commemorate the 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution in Boston. The commemoration, made up of events, legacy projects, and brand initiatives, showcases Boston’s true, inclusive, revolutionary spirit, with an eye towards the future.

Boston 250 is about more than history - it is be a celebration of Boston’s revolutionary, path-breaking past and present. Yes, the revolution got its start here, but so did Martin Luther King, Jr,. and Malcolm X, life saving treatments and vaccines, the first public school, public park, and public library. That is the story of Boston we want to tell. 

Shows begin at dusk.

The series is hosted by the Boston Parks and Recreation Department and sponsor America 250 with additional support from the Mayor’s Office of Tourism, Sports, and Entertainment.

Free popcorn will be provided while supplies last.

Movies will have the closed captions visible on-screen where available.
