A Music-Filled Beach Fest Is Heading To Manhattan For A Limited Time This Summer

NYC is home to some pretty great beaches, but when it comes to the city’s relentless sweltering heat, we’re always open to welcome one more! And, well, we’re in luck!

This July, Seaport is bringing the beach to us with the return of Seaport Beach Fest.

For three days only New Yorkers are invited to grab their sunscreen and have all the fun in the sun, from digging their toes in the sand to enjoying stunning waterfront views as a pop-up beach takes over the Seaport Square!

The fest will be complete with refreshing drinks and tasty bites from food trucks all weekend long.

Plus, live performances and music from DJs–such as DJ MOMA–will keep the party going all weekend long, spinning a blend of hip-hop, afrobeats, soul, R&B, and underground dance grooves, along with classic jams, rare gems, and the latest dance floor hits.

The best part–since the beach is popping up at the Seaport Square you won’t have to worry about trekking for what seems like an eternity across the hot sand to stake out a good spot to lay out your towel!

The party that is Seaport Beach Fest goes down the weekend of July 28-30 at the Seaport Square (89 South Street, between Piers 16 & 17). Find the full lineup of events here.

So grab your sunscreen and put on your shades and we’ll see you at the beach!
