  • Summerstage – Free Performances in all Five Boroughs

    SummerStage

    SummerStage is an annual festival of (mostly) free performances spread out across all five boroughs. The events run from May to September, but most are scheduled in June, July, and August.

    Most SummerStage evens are free. Each year, however, a few of the concerts by big-name acts are ticketed events. Those are usually held at Rumsey Playfield in Central Park. The funds from the ticketed events help support all the free events held throughout the festival.

    For the free events, admission is first-come-first served and closes when the venue’s capacity is reached.

    See the full SummerStage schedule at the CityParks Foundation website.
