San Antonio's Slab Cinema is back with Movies In The Pool and Float and Flick series, for those looking to pair their favorite flicks with a refreshing swim. The schedule includes Disney favorites like The Little Mermaid and Moana as part of the Float and Flick series at Pickrell Park Pool, as reported by the San Antonio Report. The portable screens will also be popping up across the city, with the full lineup available to peruse online for interested movie-goers.

Then there's Hemisfair's offer of free Movies by Moonlight every Tuesday in June, accommodating attendees with free parking and to-go treats from local eateries. Films like The Goonies and Clueless are ready to tickle the nostalgia of viewers, adding another layer of incentive to venture downtown.

The Tobin Center for the Performing Arts continues the allure outdoors with H-E-B Cinema on Will's Plaza, where patrons can revel in classics from Hairspray to The Incredibles. Those who prefer their movies with a dash of art can catch the Briscoe Western Art Museum's Summer Film Series, kicking off with the classic, Giant, with a chance to win a stay at Hotel Paisano, where the movie's stars stayed during filming in 1955, as well as tickets to the Museum of the Big Bend in Alpine, the San Antonio Report details.

The City of San Antonio World Heritage Office is not to be outdone, hosting the Outdoor Family Film Series at Mission Marquee Plaza. This pet-friendly romp through cinema includes hits like Shang-Chi & The Legend of The Ten Rings and the upcoming Guardians of The Galaxy Vol. 3. With such a plethora of cinematic excursions on offer throughout San Antonio, from the historic missions to modern plazas, it seems that virtually every evening presents an opportunity to delight in big-screen storytelling under the vast Texas sky.
