Warm nights and late sunsets make the perfect atmosphere for outdoor movies in Philly. Plenty of area venues have family-friendly outdoor movie nights, from local community centers and parks to big screens at the Jersey Shore. Maybe the best part about these movies is that all of them are free! Most films begin at dusk, but be sure to arrive early to snag a prime viewing spot. Pack some snacks, a blanket (and bug spray, too), and then sit back, relax and enjoy the show.
