Fall/Winter Events in NY
There’s nothing like a New York City Autumn that signals the start of the brisk Winter to come. It also means plenty of events are happening on the horizon, bringing us indoors and away from the bitter weather, and as usual, New York goes all out! So grab your favorite warm beverage, whether it’s a pumpkin spice latte or something stronger, and let’s look at what’s happening around this great city!
Get your tickets to the balloon museum
Ever the place for something special, there’s a unique exhibition coming to Pier 36. You’ll want to check it out and bring some of your closest friends. It’s part art installation, part socialization boost, and we can definitely dig our fingers into that! It’s an interactive affair, so be prepared to engage with this, have your minds opened, and feel a big smile emerge on your face. The Balloon Museum has made its way to NYC, and this is its launch in North America, so get ahead of the bustle before tickets sell out and, most of all, enjoy!
BAM Next Wave Festival
BAM is never short of great ideas to keep viewers witnessing superb sights. The Next Wave Festival is back and it’s your chance to experience something that has been around for the better part of four decades. In fact, Next Wave Festival has become a cornerstone of BAM, what it offers and what it’s about. It helps show what’s new in the landscape of performance art and brings it onto the stage. Make sure you secure your entrance here before the festival ends so you don’t miss out!
NY Comedy Festival
Everyone knows this truth: New York is the heart of the comedy scene. It’s the place that many of the greats get their start and where they come back to share their hilarious stories with others. The major stars that are going to be at this year’s comedy festival are known by all. It’s a chance for you to meet comedy festival such such as Dave Attell, Bill Burr and Conan O’Brien. Not to mention other much loved stars such as Jimmy Carr and Margaret Cho. There will be something for everyone!
New York Road Runners (NYRR) Midnight Run
Of course, this list wouldn’t be complete without a way to close out the year or start the new one. In the typical fashion of the city that never sleeps and keeps itself in shape, NYRR is hosting its annual midnight run. It starts a minute before the year ends and is a leisurely four-mile run through the beautiful Central Park. Some swag comes with registration, and there’s also an explosive firework-fueled start to the race as well to bring the new year in with a bang!
Make New Year’s night one to remember and celebrate it with hundreds of others wanting to make it memorable. For this one you won’t need to worry about the cold as we’re sure you’ll warm up in no time!
