Enjoy an evening of classical music under the stars with the New York Philharmonic.
Since 1965 this iconic New York summer experience has transformed parks throughout the city into a patchwork of picnickers and provided music lovers with an opportunity to hear the best classical music under the stars.
After a two year absence performing in Central Park, because of health and safety concerns for audience, musicians, and employees during the COVID-19 pandemic. the New York Philharmonic will be a well deserved treat for all who attend.
This year's performance takes place on June 15th, 2022 on the Great Lawn. For more details, visit the EVENT page.
