“The Philadelphia Story” will kick off the 2022 National Bank of Indianapolis Summer Nights Film Series June 3.
INDIANAPOLIS — Real summer fun can mean reel enjoyment under the stars.
The 2022 National Bank of Indianapolis’ Summer Nights Film Series kicks off June 3 in The Amphitheater at Newfields, 4000 Michigan Road.
All you need is a chair or a blanket. Concessions and beverages will be available for purchase. You are welcome to pack your own picnic (with non-alcoholic beverages only) if you’d like. For those who like to be prepared, sunscreen and bug spray are always a good idea.
Doors open at 7 p.m., and the evening will kick off with music and activities before the screening. The movie will begin as twilight turns to night. Over the summer, 15 films will be shown—everything from black-and-white classics to modern blockbusters.
New this year, Summer Nights tickets will be sold as individual tickets and premiere reserved section seating will be available accommodating one to six people. Premiere reserved sections will be sold at a fixed price with a maximum of six tickets.
Individual tickets are $9 for members and $12 for public and reserved sections are $60 for members and $78 for public. In the event of inclement weather, films will be shown in The Toby Theater at 9 p.m.
