Some 4,000 moviegoers are expected to attend per night, with guests invited to bring their own blankets, food, and drinks (including alcoholic beverages) to help make each evening one to remember.

Dates through July 2 have now been announced, starting with a showing of Fast Times at Ridgemont High on May 14.

More dates are TBD, with roughly 25 screenings total planned through the end of the summer.

On-site parking is extra, so carpooling or usage of public transit is humbly advised.

Oh, and if you’ve never been to one of the Cinespia events, here’s a little promo they produced in 2014 that will offer a little flavor of the experience:
