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.
