TRIBECA DRIVE-IN: DINNER AND A MOVIE OUTDOOR FILM SERIES RETURNS TO OCULUS PLAZA AT WESTFIELD WORLD TRADE CENTER
In collaboration with the team behind the Tribeca Film Festival, this year's series will take place on three summer weekends (Thursday-Saturday): June 14-16, July 12-14, and August 9-11.
NEW YORK, NY- May 23, 2018 -For the second consecutive year, Westfield World Trade Center and Tribeca will bring a free summer outdoor film series to downtown Manhattan's Oculus Plaza (located at the corner of Church and Dey streets) curated
by the team that programs the Tribeca Film Festival.
Each of the nine classic and fan favorite feature films screened at Tribeca Drive-In presents Westfield Dinner & a Movie shares one common connection: a plot or key scene focused on the theme of food - a subject which undeniably has the power to elicit a great deal of passion and bring both individuals and communities together for bonding over new and shared cuisines.
To make the experience even more enjoyable and a perfect way to spend summer evenings with family and friends - visitors attending the screenings will be able to enjoy live music, win Westfield retailer prizes, and relax in a chic lounge and dining area - with exclusively curated food and beverage offerings provided by some of Westfield World Trade Center's tastiest restaurants and eateries, including: Eataly NYC Downtown, Epicerie Boulud, Choza Taqueria, Nobletree Coffee, Nunu Chocolates, Irving Farm Coffee Roasters, Grom, and Blue Bottle Coffee.
This year's series will take place on three summer weekends, geared towards Lower Manhattan professionals and local residents, couples, friends, and family audiences. Doors open at 5pm and films will begin at 7:30 pm on each screening date:
June screenings: The perfect dinner-and-a-movie films pair stories from across America- Los Angeles to Miami to the Big Easy- with regional cuisine to transport you across the country:
Thursday, 6/14: La La Land
Friday, 6/15: Chef
Saturday, 6/16: The Princess and the Frog
July screenings: After a whirlwind trip around the US, it always feels great to come home with three quintessential hometown stories served up alongside local NYC cuisine:

Westfield World Trade Center offers the very best of New York City and our partnership with the team behind Tribeca Film Festival reflects just that, said Shari C. Hyman, Vice President and General Manager of Westfield World Trade Center.
