Electric Daisy Carnival - Saturday May 24th - Sunday May 25th
MetLife Stadium, NYC
“The world famous EDM fest comes to NYC - expect thousands of costumed ravers and ragers partying from dusk - dawn all weekend long.”
Artists: Tiesto, Hardwell, Nero, Bassnectar, and more

The Governors Ball Music Festival - Friday June 6th - Sunday June 8th
Randall’s Island, NYC
"If a verified tropical storm that brought monsoon-like rain and several feet of mud couldn’t dampen spirits at Gov Ball last year, we’re pretty sure nothing can."
Artists: Outkast, Disclosure, Grimes, Chance the Rapper, Skrillex, and more

Northside Festival - Thursday June 12th - Thursday June 19th
McCarren Park, Brooklyn
"In the five years since it began, this hip summer fest has gone from a showcase for up-and-coming acts to a Brooklyn version of SXSW, with concerts, a film festival and an "innovation" component for techies."

River to River Festival - Thursday June 19th - Sunday June 29th
Lower Manhattan, NYC
"An inviting, musically adventurous music series in New York City—located, incongruously, among the skyscraper alleys and shuttered-after-6pm storefronts of downtown Manhattan. Believe it or not, it works."
Artists: Bang on a Can Marathon, ETHEL, Kaki King and more

Celebrate Brooklyn! - Thursday June 12th - Sunday August 17th
Prospect Park, Brooklyn
"SummerStage may be bigger and better-known, but Celebrate Brooklyn! has been around for much longer. And yes, it's worth the trek to Brooklyn—not least because the Bandshell's a beaut."

Central Park SummerStage - Sunday June 29th - Saturday August 30th
Central Park, NYC
