Summer in New York City is hot, sticky, and energetic. Sidewalk cafes overflow with casual cappuccino sippers and boozy brunch-goers. Broadway tickets can be deeply discounted because many locals leave the city in July and August. A free show opportunity exists through The Delacorte Theater in Central Park, which returns with Romeo & Juliet. In-person tickets can be snagged the day of, making the process part of the fun. With many activities across all five boroughs, planning days can be difficult, so curated summer highlights can help shape an urban adventure.
"There's no bad time to visit New York, but summer in the city-hot, sticky, and pulsing with energy-is something to behold. Sidewalk cafes, not quite approximating Europe, nonetheless overflow with casual cappuccino sippers and boozy brunch-goers. Broadway tickets may be deeply discounted as many locals leave the city in July and August. Time your visit right, and you could even see a show for free: This year, The Delacorte Theater in Central Park returns with Romeo & Juliet, and snagging an in-person ticket the day of is half the fun."
"There are so many fun distractions across all five boroughs that it can be hard to decide how to fill the days. We zeroed in on this summer's best of New York so you can plan your perfect urban adventure."
