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

215 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.

Concert | Former Broadway Performer Brings Indie Folk & Rock to the Stage


Brooklyn-based and Seattle(ish)-bred artist Taylor Pearlstein brings her haunting blend of indie rock and folk to the stage. Taylor's music is saturated in vulnerability and angst, pressing into wounds with comfort and curiosity. Her debut EP, Perfect Blue, dives deep into the spells of our own delusions and the ache of breaking them, while her original musical Wake You Up sings a tale of collision, grief, and the task of carrying one another through this world. Seen on Broadway in Six: The Musical and across the U.S. as one of its iconic Queens, Taylor now carves her own path through New York's indie scene, performing with her band and stirring up raw soundscapes that linger long after the last chord.

Jazz | Homage to Poland's Legendary "Bikini Boys" & Polish Jazz Classics


Musicans pay homage to Poland's legendary "Bikini Boys", who embraced American musical styles in defiance of official communist doctrine, at this special concert featuring original interpretations of Polish jazz classics and their own compositions. These musicians present original interpretations of the band's work, alongside jazz standards and their own compositions--offering a fresh and dynamic take on both classic and contemporary jazz. The term "Bikini Boys" was coined in postwar Poland as a nickname--sometimes with irony, sometimes with admiration--for a new generation of jazz musicians boldly embracing American musical styles in defiance of official doctrine. At the time, jazz was seen by the communist authorities as a dangerous Western influence: decadent, bourgeois, and ideologically subversive. Yet, despite censorship and repression, these artists found ways to explore and perform jazz, whether in clandestine clubs or within the limits of state-approved dance orchestras--often disguising artistic innovation as mere entertainment.

Classical Music | Acclaimed Composer & Musician Ljova's Original Works a New Instrument: The Fadolín (In Person AND Online!)


Ljova's (Lev Zhurbin) solo project, “Enter the Fadolín” introduces a new instrument into the classical cannon -- the fadolín — that combines the range of the violin, viola and most of the cello, in one unique sonority. Since 2020, Ljova has been building a repertoire for the unaccompanied fadolín, adapting music by J.S. Bach (originally written for the keyboard), Bach's Irish contemporary Turlough O’Carolan (originally performed on the folk harp), a popular theme by Dvořák originally written for the orchestra, and many pieces written especially for this unique, haunting new instrument, by Ljova himself. Ljova divides his time between composing for the concert stage, contemporary dance & film, leading his own ensemble LJOVA AND THE KONTRABAND, performing with and composing for TRIO FADOLÍN, as well as a busy career as a fadolínist, violist, and musical arranger. Among recent projects is a film score for the National Geographic, commissions from the City of London Sinfonia, The Louisville Orchestra, Yo-Yo Ma and the Silkroad Ensemble, Brooklyn Rider, The Knights, Sybarite5 and A Far Cry, as well arrangements for the New York Philharmonic, Los Angeles Philharmonic, conductors Gustavo Dudamel and Alondra de la Parra, songwriters Ricky Martin, Natalia Lafourcade and Carlos Vives.

With roots in rock, folk, and blues, Rachel's music carries the warmth of classic songwriting and the fire of modern soul.

In 2024, she performed the national anthem for a sold-out Rangers game at Madison Square Garden and was an official SXSW artist. Joining her for this special evening are Franco Vittore and Neal Rosenthal, rounding out a night of intimate, powerful live music that celebrates the art of the song before her highly anticipated debut album release next year.

Concert | Jamon Maple: An African American Balladeer's Journey into Korean Song


Before I Knew the Words is a solo concert experience tracing Jamon Maple's real-life transformation from curious listener to viral sensation, becoming one of the most unexpected yet beloved interpreters of Korean song. With breathtaking vocals, intimate storytelling, and a voice that lives between worlds, Jamon invites the audience into a musical pilgrimage--one that led a Black American artist to find his soul's home in a language he didn't speak, but somehow always knew. Through timeless Korean ballads, personal reflection, and original music, this evening is more than a performance -- it's a spiritual homecoming, a celebration of cultural connection, and a reminder that sometimes, the music finds us. When Jamon Maple first heard a Korean ballad echoing from a friend's apartment in New York City, he didn't understand a single word -- but something in the sound shattered him open. What began as a moment of unexpected resonance would ignite a journey across languages, cultures, and continents. He is an American tenor, educator, and cultural ambassador whose artistry transcends borders. From Carnegie Hall to Korean national television, he has earned international recognition for performances that unite classical, contemporary, and world music traditions through powerful storytelling and cross-cultural connection.

Collaboration remained at the heart of her work, showing up in the form of joint creations with Superchunk's Mac McCaughan, as well as in contributions from members of Slowdive and The Cure on her 2023 album Goodbye, Hotel Arkada.

Classical Music | An Evening of Classical & Popular Pieces with the New York Mandolin Orchestra


As the New York Mandolin Orchestra enters its second century of music-making, its original concentration on classical music is changing; its members will perform a combination of classical and popular works. Recently, under the baton of Jeffrey Ellenberger, the orchestra's repertoire has expanded to include bluegrass, choro, jazz, folk and ethnic music, and show tunes. Now, under the baton of Yuanlin Chen, the orchestra continues to work in these genres as well as classical music. First known as the New York Freiheit Mandolin Orchestra, New York Mandolin Orchestra was founded by Samuel Firstman and originally affiliated with the Jewish Community newspaper "Freiheit." In all, seven other mandolin orchestras shared the stage with the New York Mandolin Orchestra during the first half of the 20th Century. Their orientation was primarily classical music. In the 1980s, as their members aged or moved from the metropolitan area, these orchestras dwindled. Their remaining members migrated to the New York Mandolin Orchestra, which continues to make music to this day.

In one evening of two operas, audiences will travel from an early 20th-century European reinterpretation of an Italian fairytale set in China (Turandot), to a 21st-century musical dreamscape born of British literature and Asian-American collaboration (Puzzles and Games).   Turandot: Ferruccio Busoni (1917; concert version 1971) Libretto by Philipp Jarnach A striking fairytale pairing from two very different worlds. Busoni’s urbane, witty Turandot, based on Carlo Gozzi’s 18th-century play and steeped in commedia dell’arte tradition, receives a rare outing in its 1971 concert version. Puzzles and Games: Unsuk Chin (2017; from 2007 opera Alice in Wonderland) Libretto by David Henry Hwang Puzzles and Games is a fantastical sequence drawn from Unsuk Chin's acclaimed 2007 opera Alice in Wonderland, with a libretto by Tony Award–winner David Henry Hwang.

Classical Music | Sonatenabend: Juilliard Students Perform Sonata Masterpieces (In Person AND Online!)


An evening of sonatas showcasing the beauty and balance of the gender. This concert offers expressive interpretations of works from the Classical and Romantic repertoire. The Classical period in clkassical music is a specific era, generally from about 1750 to 1820, characterized by a shift from the complex counterpoint of the Baroque to a lighter, clearer style with more elegant and balanced forms. Key composers include Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven (whose early works fall within this period). During this time, the symphony, string quartet, and piano emerged as dominant forms, and the orchestra grew in size, leading to new possibilities in texture and dynamics. Romantic-era of classical music (roughly 1800-1910) is known for its emphasis on emotional expression, individualism, and drama, diverging from the structured rules of the Classical period. Key composers include Chopin, Tchaikovsky, and Brahms, while iconic works like Chopin's "Nocturnes," Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake," and Wagner's "Tristan und Isolde" epitomize the era's passionate and expansive style. Note: Please arrive 30-60 minutes in advance of your performance to sign in to the Juilliard building and receive your visitor badge. Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Concert | Orquesta Broadway Performs Latin Dance Tunes: Mambo, Pachanga, Salsa, & More (In Person AND Online!)


Latin band Orquesta Broadway performs a medley of dance music for the audience to enjoy. Formed in NYC in 1962, Orquesta Broadway emerged as one of the most important and enduring charanga ensembles in the U.S. At a time when Latin music was flourishing in the city, the group distinguished itself with the elegance, swing, and Cuban-rooted authenticity of its charanga format. Inspired by traditional Cuban charanga orchestras, founders Eddy and Rudy sought to preserve the spirit of danzon, cha-cha-cha, and pachanga while adapting them to the vibrant energy of New York's Latin music scene. The band quickly became a staple of the city's Latin dance circuit, performing in clubs like the Palladium and in dancehalls where mambo, pachanga, and Latin jazz were in high demand. For more than five decades, Orquesta Broadway has toured internationally, bringing charanga to Europe, Latin America, and beyond. Today, Orquesta Broadway stands as a living legacy of Cuban dance music in New York. The band continues to embody the vitality of charanga music and its unique place in Latin music history. There are three 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. 3.
