Free Events, Free Things to Do in New York City!  Read More

209 free concerts take place New York City right now! In addition, Club Free Time members get free tickets to the concerts which are not free for general public, but are free for our members: when a producer wants that special buzz of the 'full house' at a concert - Club Free Time members are welcomed for their enthusiasm and sophistication! All they have to do is to login to www.clubfreetime.com and make a reservation.

As for the plethora of free concerts which take place in NYC year round, on weekdays and weekends, during lunch time, late afternoons and various evening hours: many people think that free concerts take place in NYC only during Summer, but nothing can be further from the truth.

Here are the numbers so you could see for yourself: about 1000 free concerts take place in NYC from mid-September to the end of May; and about 600 free concerts take place during the three Summer months (that 600 number excludes June's Make Music New York as on that single day more than 400 free concerts take place in NYC to celebrate Solstice).

As the number of free concerts per a summer month almost doubles the number of free concerts per month during other three seasons, you sure hear more about Summer free concerts.

In addition, Summer free concerts get more publicity, as such major popular concert series as New York Philharmoinic in the Parks, Metropolitan Opera Recital Series, Summer Stage and Celebrate Brooklyn all take place during summer months.

In addition, it's of course lots of fun to spend your lunch or your evening listening to the music you love and to picnic along, but your soul needs those nourishing sounds during other seasons as well.  So keep in mind that in New York City you can attend a free concert practically any day of the year, except maybe such major Hollidays as July 4th, Thanksgiving and the Christmas Day.

So please keep in mind that whether it's a weekday or a weekend, a holiday or just a regular day or a weekday night, you can alwasy count on Club Free Time when you want to listen to your favorite music, free of carge.

Cabaret | Immersive Burlesque Spectacle Celebrating Black & Latine Artistry


Welcome to Harlem in Havana reimagined, where forbidden glamour, beauty, and electrifying performance collide. Brown Skin Showgirls: A Harlem in Havana Tribute Show, part of Harlem in Havana NYC, is a high-glam love letter to Black and Latine artistry. This immersive burlesque spectacle resurrects Leon Claxton's legendary midway show--a celebration of Black and Cuban performers who captivated North America from the carnival stage during the Jim Crow era. Journey through decades of rebellion and desire: the heat of 1940s Black burlesque; the Afro-Cuban rhythms of the 1950s; and the fearless drag and sultry movement of the 1960s. Every act drips with sensuality and modern edge. The night is headlined by Jessabelle Thunder, Miss Exotic World 2026, and hosted by NYC drag royalty Junior Mintt, with a jaw-dropping cast. Dare to indulge? Please note: This performance contains partial nudity and other adult themes. Audience discretion is advised. There are two ways to access this event: 1.

Experience the expressive power of piano four hands as the Gugg Piano Duo - newly named to BBC Radio 3's prestigious New Generation Artists cohort for 2026-2028 - presents a richly colored program spanning Austrian and Czech masterworks to vibrant American modernism. At the center of the evening stands Schubert's monumental Grand Duo Sonata, a four-movement work whose symphonic breadth and luminous melodies push the piano beyond chamber music into orchestral territory. A contrasting turn follows with Dvorak's second Slavonic Dance, compact yet emotionally charged, moving from introspective E minor to a radiant E major. Smetana's The Moldau then unfolds in flowing lines and vivid imagery, tracing the famous river from its sources through the Czech landscape to Prague. The program concludes with John Corigliano's Gazebo Dances, a spirited suite inspired by the lightness and elegance of outdoor band concerts. Together, these works showcase the piano's extraordinary range of color, texture, intimacy, and grandeur. Program: Franz Schubert (1797-1828) Grand Duo Sonata Antonin Dvorak (1841-1904) Second Slavonic Dance Bedrich Smetana (1824-1884) The Moldau John Corigliano (1938-) Gazebo Dances

Concert | 100 Electric Guitars Play at Once: Avant-Garde, Maximalist Symphony


Hear a live performance of the late composer Glenn Branca's Symphony No. 13, aka Hallucination City, which premiered in June of 2001 and was one of the last works of art to take place at World Trade Center Plaza. Written in four movements for an orchestra of 100 electric guitar players and intended to be played uninterrupted in just over an hour, the work has become a landmark of avant-garde music, notorious for its maximalism, eccentric tuning, and overwhelming intensity. Branca, a prolifically eclectic creative mind with roots in the no wave rock scene, built a symphony so legendarily iconoclastic that it became synonymous with the furthest extremes of sound. Due to the project's challenging orchestration and significant complexity, Hallucination City has never had a full revival in New York City... until now. Don't miss this one-night-only opportunity, conducted by Reg Bloor, to experience a musical megalith revived in the city of its birth.

Jazz | Sound, Spirit, & Storytelling with Trumpeteer Art Blakey


Art Blakey's bandstand performs. The trumpet chair in Art Blakey (aka Buhaina) and the Jazz Messengers is one of the most demanding and transformative seats in jazz. Under Blakey's relentless swing and uncompromising leadership, generations of trumpeters were forged in sound, spirit, and storytelling. When Wynton Marsalis stepped into Buhaina's band in the early 1980s, he didn't simply join a group--he stepped into a lineage rooted in blues feeling, virtuosity, discipline, and deep respect for the art form. Hosted and curated by acclaimed trumpeter Bruce Harris, Buhaina's Hot Seat traces how the Jazz Messengers' trumpet tradition shaped hard bop, defined generations of musicians, and continues to influence today's jazz landscape. There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon for all.
