New York, NY Concerts Tickets

Bands and performers bring their A game when they take the stage in New York City. From Radio City Music Hall to Madison Square Garden, the Big Apple is home to many of the most storied concert halls in the world. That means that whether you’re settling in for an intimate show at the Mercury Lounge or dancing the night away at the newly revamped Webster Hall, catching an upcoming concert in NYC generally means that you’re hearing musicians who are inspired to perform at their very best.

Of all the concert halls in New York, Madison Square Garden’s nickname—the World’s Most Famous Arena—is the most statement making. Billy Joel has set a record for the most concerts at the Garden, and jam-favorites Phish are also regulars here. But the Garden is hardly the only famous venue in town. Harlem’s Apollo Theater has a spot on the National Register of Historic Places, thanks to its role in launching the careers of countless African-American recording artists, from James Brown to Billie Holiday. For opera and symphony concert fans, the Lincoln Center is unparalleled, while the Highline Ballroom attracts hip-hop and indie artists from around the world.

Much of the live music in NYC occurs in theaters that weren’t originally built for hosting concerts. The Gramercy Theater was a movie house and an off-Broadway venue, but is now one of New York’s most intimate concert spaces. Likewise, Webster Hall has adapted and altered its focus as it changes hands. And then there’s Governors Ball, New York’s marquee concert event since 2011, which occurs outside on Randall’s Island.

Wherever you plan to enjoy an upcoming concert in NYC, expect an enthusiastic crowd and an inspired performance. Just remember, all that excitement means that concert tickets can be difficult to come by, so to avoid getting shut out, make plans in advance.
