Live music performances have returned to Lincoln Center, under a new program called New Stages. The audience sits outdoors, in socially-distanced pods to enjoy in-person performances ranging from chamber music and jazz to Caribbean and Bollywood inspired melodies, performed by local artists.
Evening performances are under the stars, on the signature sloped Laurie M. Tisch Illumination Lawn. Afternoon performances are in the peaceful shade of the trees in Barclays Capital Grove.
It’s a new way to enjoy live performances while Lincoln Center halls remain closed.
A pod costs $25 and can accommodate two people, which means you are enjoying a live Lincoln Center performance on the cheap. Pods in Barclays Capital Grove have chairs, while pods on the Laurie M. Tisch Illumination Lawn are on the ground, so you are encouraged to bring your own blankets or lawn chairs to sit on.
All pods are general admission, first come first served, and only two pods may be purchased per transaction. No pods will be sold at the door.
Here is the performance schedule for this week and next week:
Today, Tuesday, Oct. 20 at 7:00pm
