SIGN UP Well, almost summer: June 13 is night one in 2025 — it's still technically spring, yes — but organizers saw the date's obviously eeky potential.
It's Friday the 13th, so count on a shivery flick to captivate audience members ("The Shining" had been previously announced, but another skin-prickly film will be shown, shares the Queen Mary team).
"The Goonies" will find rollicking adventure July 16 while "Ratatouille" will whip up a savory soirée Aug. 6.
The Scene
Want to find new things to do in Los Angeles? The Scene's lifestyle stories have you covered. Here's your go-to source on where the fun is across SoCal and for the weekend.
A pop-up market, boasting vendors selling creative wares, is a feature at each of the nights, and the June 13 bazaar will boast a "Spooktacular" spirit.
Brews and bites created by "local chefs" will be available for purchase, too.
If you want to go for the "Ultimate Movie Package," prepare to snuggle into a little pool "decked out" with pillows and a blanket, a comfy spot created for two people (popcorn, sips, and snacks are involved, too).
Southern California is home to some cinematically special film nights, those oh-so-summer-ish outdoor affairs that feel like camp or at least something cool.
But the cool factor only increases when the Queen Mary, that storied superstar, serves as a regal backdrop to the proceedings.
Secure your tickets before making for the Long Beach for a truly cinematic setting.
