There are so many fun ways to see movies. From traditional theaters to drive-ins to sofas, each setting has its own benefits. In New York City this summer, a new cinema is combining two of the best ways to watch a movie: outdoors and in bed.

As the sun sets on a warm summer evening, you and your friends can choose from more than 150 double-size beds to lounge on while watching the movie at the appropriately dubbed "Bed Cinema." The beds are big enough to fit two to four people, but you can push them together if you're with a large group. Along with the beds, you’ll be extra cozy thanks to pillows and blankets provided by the venue. There will even be LED-lit bedside tables to store your belongings.

If you want to eat while watching during the screening, you can purchase snacks from a food truck on site selling snacks. But popcorn, the unofficial movie snack, will be free. Plus, you’re allowed to bring your own food to the movie unlike traditional movie theaters. Though the exact location for The Bed Cinema has yet to be announced, based on the high number of beds, it’ll probably be at a spacious park.

The screenings will start on Wednesday, August 12 and run through Sunday, August 16, beginning at 7 p.m. While the movies haven’t been selected yet, the event description notes that there will definitely be some classics. Pre-register here to be the first to get ticket details.
