Free Events, Free Things to Do in New York City! Read More
198 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.

Jazz | 250 Years of American Music: Works by Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk, Mary Lou Williams, Aaron Copland, John Williams, & More (In Person AND Online!)
Enjoy a celebration of the USA's jazz and classical roots, as three ensembles -- musicians from NOVUS, students from the acclaimed Montclair State University CaliBrass Ensemble, and JAZZ HOUSE KiDS -- team up to tell the ever-evolving story of America through its music. Alongside iconic works by Aaron Copland, John Williams, and others, the ensembles will perform music by John Coltrane, Miles Davis, and three trailblazing women who helped shape the American music landscape. Listeners will hear music by Margaret Bonds, one of the first Black composers to gain fame in this country. A groundbreaker in her own right, Mary Lou Williams, sometimes called "the mother of bebop," was a pianist, teacher, and composer who mentored not only Davis but Thelonius Monk and Charlie Parker. Also featured is Florence Price, a pioneering composer and the first Black woman to have a symphony performed by a major American orchestra. The night's performers will also spotlight Sawney Freeman, the earliest-known published Black composer in America -- in what might be the first time his work has been performed by a large brass ensemble. Organizers suggest arriving 45 minutes before start time. Admission is first-come, first-served, with ticket holders receiving priority.

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. Pay-what-you-wish tickets go on sale on May 20 at noon.

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.
