 New York City in June is a vibrant and exciting place to be, offering a diverse array of activities that cater to all interests. For those visiting this weekend, June 7-8, 2025, there are several unique and entertaining events to look forward to.

On Saturday, June 7, music enthusiasts can kick off the weekend with the BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn Festival Opening Night at the Lena Horne Bandshell in Prospect Park. This event marks the beginning of the 47th season of Brooklyn’s signature summer concert series, featuring a wide range of performances across various genres that will keep you entertained from afternoon into the night.

For a dose of classical music with a modern twist, head to Rumsey Playfield in Central Park where reggaeton icon Yandel will be performing his Sinfónico Tour. This concert, running from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM, combines Latin rhythms with orchestral arrangements, promising a high-energy and unique musical experience.

If you prefer a more laid-back musical afternoon, consider the free jazz concert by LaDee Streeter at Staten Island’s Rev. Dr. Maggie Howard Playground from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM. Hosted by the Jazz Foundation of America, this concert highlights one of NYC’s premier jazz talents.

For those who enjoy theater, the Hudson Classical Theater Company will be performing Shakespeare’s *Julius Caesar* at the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument in Riverside Park from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM. The dramatic backdrop of the monument adds an extra layer of depth to this timeless political tragedy.

If you're looking for something more contemporary and interactive, the Summer on the Hudson: Silent Disco at Pier I in Riverside Park South is a must-visit. From 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM, you can enjoy a dance party with wireless headphones, choosing from three DJs spinning different genres such as house, hip-hop, or classics.

Beyond this weekend, June offers a plethora of exciting events. On June 10, the Museum Mile Festival will transform Upper Fifth Avenue into a traffic-free haven from 6 to 9 PM. This annual event includes free admission to several of the city’s best cultural institutions, such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Solomon R.

Starting June 11 and running through August 9, Lincoln Center’s Summer for the City will offer over 200 free or pay-what-you-can events. This series includes musical storytimes for kids, silent discos, comedy shows, dance parties, jazz and opera performances, and even a Brazil Week celebrating Brazilian culture, music, and dance. You can also indulge in global cuisine and relax at the New York-Presbyterian Hospital’s The Art of Wellbeing wellness studio.

Sports fans can catch a game by the NJ/NY Gotham FC as they face off against the Kansas City Current on June 7 at 1:00 PM. Alternatively, you might want to visit a game by the New York Yankees, one of the city’s most iconic baseball teams.

For outdoor adventures, consider biking along the two rivers and through Central Park, or take a sightseeing boat tour to admire the Manhattan skyline from the outdoor deck. If you prefer a more leisurely outing, pack a picnic and enjoy it in one of New York’s best parks, such as Central Park or the High Line, an old railway track turned park.

Art lovers should not miss the Photoville Festival, which will showcase a variety of photographic works in an outdoor setting. Additionally, the annual TriBeCa Film Festival, running from June 4-15, is one of the most influential film festivals in the U.S. and offers a chance to see new and innovative films.
