Rumsey Playfield

Love this music venue - big enough to attract amazing bands and small enough to feel intimate . Great food and wine vendors too (though if you go often you will notice there's not much variety)

Central Park SummerStage fills Rumsey Playfield with every type of music under the summer sun. Here you can find SummerStage concerts (free) and their benefit shows (not free) as well as other gigs! Read more

Home of NYC Summerstage where thousands of New Yorkers rock out to free pop/rock/international concerts all summer long, rain or shine! If you have not been here, this is a must do!

One of the better outdoor venues. Keeps things intimate with a relatively small crowd. Great food options but the beers are too small.

If you're thinking about which beer to order, ask for the Allagash White if it's a hot, sunny day

Although it's mentioned in Jul it will be available in multiple locations in CP, this is only the place there free wifi is available in CP as of Sep http://www.nycgovparks.org/sub_your_park/wifi/

Skip the "concerts " put on by Good Morning America. (Sia's "concert " was a total of 3 songs stretched over and hour and fifteen minutes.)

Buy two beers at a time to save the long wait .

Go to the ATM beforehand. It's the longest line here.

Don't do Mile End here. Takes longer and tastes worse than you want. Although I do like the Brooklyn one.

Summerstage. that's all.

don't pay for concert tickets! You can make a picnic and hear the show perfectly from behind the fences outside.

Gavin who? Here for Matt

Saw Lady GaGa this morning......good show. GMA screwed it up though
