River to River all Summer NYC

At the southernmost tip of Manhattan, Battery Park is the crown jewel of Downtown, offering sweeping vistas of New York Harbor and the Statue of Liberty. Its peaceful, leafy walkways and expansive green lawns are an oasis from the concrete canyons of the Financial District. The park is marked by the Whitehall Ferry Terminal to the south and Castle Clinton National Monument to the north.

The lawn of Battery Park is an incredible outdoor location for River To River’s blockbuster July 4th concert. There is ample space to stand or stretch out on the grass; you’re also welcome to bring a blanket or beach chair.



Located in the heart of Battery Park City, the World Financial Center (WFC) is a sleek, modern complex housing office towers, shops, restaurants and myriad public areas that are used as performance and exhibition spaces. The WFC’s centerpiece is the spectacular, glass-vaulted Winter Garden, a soaring atrium adorned with 40-foot palm trees. The Winter Garden opens directly onto the Plaza, a picturesque open space with views of the Statue of Liberty, Hudson River, and a waterfront promenade that circles the North Cove Harbor. Rounding off the WFC’s main arts spaces is the Courtyard Gallery. River To River Festival events occur both inside the Winter Garden as well as outside on the Plaza. All events are free and limited seating is provided on a first-come, first-served basis.
