Between the Millennium Park Summer Film Series and the stacked Movies in the Parks lineup, there's no reason to be stuck inside watching Netflix this summer. Thanks to Navy Pier's newly announced Water Flicks summer screening series, you have even more opportunities to catch a classic movie beneath the city's skyline.
Taking place on the Lake Stage in Polk Bros Park, the second annual Water Flicks series will show 10 films throughout the summer in partnership with the Chicago International Film Festival and Broadway in Chicago. The theme of this year's lineup is "sing-along summer," which means musicals are the genre of choice—from classics like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to contemporary CGI fare such as Frozen and Sing.
Kicking off on June 18, the Water Flicks series screens movies every Monday beginning at 7pm, with free popcorn provided by the Navy Pier IMAX at AMC. Pack your blanket and take a look at the complete lineup of movies below.
