Tribeca plans in-person, outdoor film festival for June

Associated Press  

NEW YORK — The Tribeca Film Festival said Monday that it plans to hold its 20th edition in-person this June and with outdoor screenings spread throughout New York’s five boroughs. “The Tribeca Film Festival was born out of our mission to bring people together in the aftermath of 9/11. “And as New York emerges from the shadow of COVID-19, it seems just right to bring people together again in-person for our 20th anniversary festival.” Tribeca has gradually broadened the footprint of its annual festival, stretching beyond its downtown namesake. “This year the festival is once again shining a spotlight on our city’s resilience and creativity, and just as we’ve done from the start, Bloomberg is glad to support this great tradition, which will once again help lift our city’s spirit,” said former New York major Michael Bloomberg and founder of Bloomberg Philanthropies, a regular Tribeca supporter.
