Best arena for concerts and games in the heart of NYC. It's a must visit for a sports event and a concert . If you haven't seen the energy of people in MSG, you haven't witnessed NY!

Masha

Обязательное место для посещения! Worth visiting in New York City ! Choose any kind of attraction ! I tried Madonna Rebel Heart Tour ! It was amazing! Plus J Lo next to me!

Tom DiMaggio

Historical, known world-wide. There are no tips besides the recommendation to put down your phone and take it all in. It's fine through a recent renovation, maintains it's classic feel. Enjoy!

Eman Abdulaziz

Attended one of Drake’s concert here. The place is well-organized, has clear view seats, and clean restrooms .

jiresell

Although a bit confusing and crowded when you enter, once you get in it’s a great place to watch a basketball game. Intimate!

Mma Fights UFC

Future home of mixed martial arts events held in New York State .

Paige C

The food in the suites is amazing! If you have to buy food, beware, it's 10x more than what you think! Spent $70 on two sandwiches and 2 drinks!

Gsus S.S.

Obviously one of the best auditoriums in the world, convenient location, near of transportation and friendly staff.Not many food options compared with other arenas and not many souvenir spots. Like it

Most famous sports arena in North America and one of the better large venues for concerts . Slick ticket processing, comfy seats and great acoustics all around. The atmosphere will give you life!!

Expanding to Madison Square Garden is the chicken sandwich restaurant sensation: Fuku. If the East Village is too far of a hike , now is your chance to grab a spicy fried chicken sandwich with fries . Read more

Julie Soscia

Of course, popular for concerts , basketball , etc. Make sure to book a private tour for more history of MSG.

James C

Truly one of the best arenas in the world. However it is really expensive for everything. Food tickets drinks and merchandise.

Patrick Healy

Whether it's a basketball game, a concert or the circus you will feel like you're at the center of the universe in New York's most famous venue. Penn Station being downstairs is very convenient too.

American Christmas

Two - 12 foot Ornamental Rings suspended from the ceiling welcome visitors to Madison Square Garden. The Knicks basketball ornament display is 8 feet tall. The Rangers skate display is 9 foot tall.

Brad Hager

AWESOME VENUE for concerts & sporting events . LOVE watching basketball games here. Front row seats for Jimmy Buffet concerts (pic) amazing show!! Nice cold beer too. ????

Steve

Eat at Taco Dumbo, and head up to the Lexus level for some decent drinks.

Dew Citi

Took my family there to see wwe live. It was awesome, we had a wonderful time. There's no place better to see wwe live then at the world's most famous arena.

Sevilla

A 'copycat'of the Giralda Tower (Seville) was part of the original MEG in 1890. It was one of the first skyscrapers in Manhattan and had an statue of greek godess Diana on top.

Phil Buckler

Go see an ice hockey game or a basketball game. The atmosphere is awesome and the food is surprisingly good!

Deb

Nice chicken tenders with fries . Seriously

The Corcoran Group

FCPB

The place is so beautiful, If you're visiting NY you must go on the tour , the place is awesome. If you get the chance go to watch a game!

Denny Martin

Incredible show, Pharrell's performance was funky, energetic, & the perfect audio appetizer for Bruno Mars. Bruno didn't miss a note; literally tore the house down & everyone was having a great time!

Madonna

July 13, 1987 - The Who's That Girl World Tour stops at the Madison Square Garden. Performed songs include: Open Your Heart, Lucky Star, Papa Don't Preach, Into the Groove, La Isla Bonita and more...

Jason H.

If you get a chance to do the Delta 360 club -do it! It's fun and the food is great. Ranger players run through before they dress for the game.

ESPN

Tired? Please. On 3/12/09, Syracuse beat UCONN in six overtimes here. It lasted three hours, 46 minutes and ended at 1:22am, the latest a basketball game at any level has ever ended in MSG history.

Janice Taylor

The best thing about arenas with seats -- get here 15 minutes early and just walk right in. Oh and there are metal detectors at the front gate, leave your knives at home.

Gabriel Hayes

The 100 level has tons of awesome eateries including Fuku (spicy fried chicken sandwiches ), Casa Nonna (pizza and Italian) and Uncle Jacks (steak sandwiches ).

People

You've made it to the Garden ! The world's most famous arena is perfect for our fave sport : celeb spotting. If you see star fans like Hugh Jackman and Beyoncé , send a virtual high-five their way.

Amy Cummings

Amazing venue with so much history! And the food and drink options are actually really good for a stadium .

Bethel & City Tours

Cirque du Soleil was amazing! The theater is beautiful and you can see really well from every angle. The show was worth seeing and the Garden is very well kept. Great Theater experience at the MSG.

Jonathan Blenman

First time here since the renovation. Place looks great and Club Gold seats had a good view . In fact, based on the layout, there isn't a bad seat in the house for Knick games.

Dee Phunk

Whenever I come to MSG, the full New Yorker in me comes out. I feel like a kid again. KNICKS! However, the chicken fingers + fries I ate wreaked havoc on my excretory system for 2 full days.

Steve Ritter

The world's most famous arena for a reason. All acts bring their A-game, and if the crowd is into it, the experience is second to none.

Mariel Suarez

Booked through stub hub for section 320 when we got 2 the venue they switched out our tickets for in the 417 section. They stopped serving alcohol at 11pm. Besides this, I had fun with my friends

Amanda Rella

The best atmosphere for a hockey game. Lots of good food options compared to any other arena. Very nicely renovated.

JBL

Knicks. Rangers. Every band you can think of. They've all played MSG. If you haven't seen an event at the historic venue in the heart of NYC - what are you waiting for? And hear it all in JBL sound.

Affinia Hotel Collection

One of Manhattan’s biggest event venues, MSG is the city ’s premiere sports and entertainment complex. Home to the NY Rangers, Knicks and Liberty teams, it’s also a stage for musicians on tour .

Angel Hana A.

Samsung Galaxy (Korea company) will donate $10 each to the Robin Hood Relief Fund, supporting over 100 organizations helping Sandy victims rebuild: robinhood.org.

Anonymous, since 2018

An absolute must-see when in NYC. Top entertainment. Tickets can be expensive , buy them online (e.g @ stub-hub) to avoid fakes. You can arrive by subway directly into the stadium .

Stina P.

great entertainment venue. for food during bball, check out jean georges simply chicken sandwich , fries from drew nieporent daily burger , and a good ole fashioned hot dog

Tycianna Lima

It’s a great experience to watch a game there, although the space between seats are a little bit uncomfortable for those who have long legs.

MADISON SQUARE GARDEN ! This place is a HISTORICAL LANDMARK !! Everyone knows MSG!! This is the MECA! LEGENDS ARE MADE HERE!! A staple of NYC! ????

On October 20, 2001, after the 9/11 attacks, Paul McCartney organizes the Concert for New York to honor the first responders, victims of the attacks, and those continuing to work on the site. Read more

Finley Bomer-Lawson

It's a beautiful venue. The production of every event I've been to here is amazing. Objectively not the best for electronic music because so much of it is seated.

Chris Pollone

Impressive venue for a concert or game. You understand the "mystique" once you're inside. Don't spend much time looking for championship banners in the rafters, though. Go to Boston for that.

Bree Sweet

You have to visit this place at least once in your life. Put on your bucket list, whether a concert or a sports event , it's a must do;)
