Free Flicks and Breezy Vibes: Summer Movie Nights Return to The Point

South Bay families, you’ve got a standing Wednesday night date in July—and it’s the kind that doesn’t require a babysitter or a pricey reservation. Summer Movie Nights are back at The Point in El Segundo, and the lineup is as eclectic (and nostalgic) as your group chat.

Starting July 2 and running every Wednesday through the end of the month, The Point transforms into a cozy outdoor cinema from 8 to 10 p.m. The vibe? Breezy and low-key. Think beach chairs, kids in pajamas, maybe a smoothie in hand—or a glass of wine if you’re properly pre-gamed at one of the center’s restaurants.

The five-film series kicks off strong with Moana (July 2)—a guaranteed crowd-pleaser for tiny adventurers and parents who know every word to “How Far I’ll Go.” After that, it’s a multi-generational throwback dream:

Grease (July 9): For the teens who just discovered it on streaming—and the parents who still have their T-Bird jackets in storage.

E.T. (July 16): Bring tissues. And maybe explain what a Speak & Spell is ahead of time.

Clueless (July 23): Peak ’90s fashion inspo for Gen Z and millennial moms alike.

Blue Crush (July 30): Because nothing says summer like surf drama and early-2000s soundtracks.

The Point’s usual dining spots will be open, and Warby Parker is running a “buy two, get 15% off” promo—because apparently, movie night is also the time to upgrade your eyewear.

The event is totally free, and the only real requirement is showing up. So pack a blanket, wrangle the kids, and maybe leave a little time to grab dinner (or dessert) on site. It’s a rare screen time situation where everyone wins.
