NEW YORK – New York City Mayor Eric Adams recently announced the return of the 'Rise Up NYC' summer concert series, offering 14 free outdoor concerts to New Yorkers across all five boroughs this summer. The highly anticipated concert series — put on in partnership with City Parks Foundation Summer Stage — is expanding significantly for its third season, inspiring all New Yorkers to unite and uplift New York City. This collaboration will incorporate select events from City Parks Foundation Summer Stage's free outdoor concerts into the Rise Up NYC line-up — promising an extraordinary and unforgettable summer filled with exceptional music.
“Once again, starting on August 1st, New Yorkers will gather together and partake in the music and culture that keeps our city moving,” said Mayor Adams. “‘Rise Up NYC’ is a free concert series that fosters camaraderie among New Yorkers and brings enjoyment to our beloved city. Music and the arts are essential to our city, and this summer, we are going to amplify the experience and make sure we are giving residents of the five boroughs an all-star experience at no cost. We welcome all New Yorkers to join us in celebrating the vibrant energy of our city through the shared joy of music.”
“Our ‘Rise Up NYC’ concert series is back, offering free outdoor concerts in all five boroughs,” said Chief Advisor to the Mayor Ingrid Lewis Martin. “As summer kicks into high gear, we invite all New Yorkers to bring their family and friends for fun nights and world-class entertainment in the city that never sleeps. Together we can Rise Up!”
Continuing on August 1st, the concert series will give New Yorkers free and safe access to exceptional concerts at a time when rising costs are putting a strain on many families. In its previous two seasons, Rise Up NYC featured performances by critically acclaimed artists such as Chrisette Michele, Maxi Priest, Mary Mary, Ja Rule, El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico, Wyclef Jean, and many more.
