2010 Central Park Conservancy Film Festival: Welcome Message

New York City's iconic skyline, buildings and neighborhoods take center stage at The Central Park Conservancy Film Festival, which brings free movies to the heart of Manhattan for five nights, Aug. 24-28. To create our "Iconic New York" theme, we chose movies that feature New York's most famous locations and sights — from the Empire State Building in King Kong to the City's subway in The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3.

Presented by Bloomberg, the eighth annual festival will be held for the first time in the landscape north of Sheep Meadow, behind Mineral Springs (mid-Park at 69th Street). Enter the Park at 72nd Street.

Movies will be close captioned. All screenings begin at 8:00 pm, rain or shine. Gates open to the public at 6:30 pm. Bring a picnic! Please note that alcoholic beverages, glass bottles, chairs, plastic tarps, video cameras, tape recorders or flash cameras are not allowed. All bags are subject to search.
