Membership
Celebrate 40 years of SummerStage with VIP access to concerts featuring artists you love and those you will love to discover! And to help get our Anniversary celebration started, we’re offering a limited time discount on select SummerStage memberships!
Every SummerStage membership offers presale access as well as a select number of complimentary tickets for benefit concerts—including shows that are sold out! Best of all, if your plans change, complimentary tickets can be reserved or rescheduled at any time.
In addition, higher level members are invited to our VIP Member Lounge or Terrace in our Central Park venue. With complimentary beer, wine, soft drinks and more, ‘skip the line’ food order delivery, and member-only premium restrooms, we welcome you to an experience you won’t find with any other membership program.
Your membership also funds critically needed free programs in parks across the city with a focus on under-resourced communities, so you can feel good while enjoying live performances in New York City!
