The New York Philharmonic Concerts in the Parks, presented by Didi and Oscar Schafer, have become an iconic New York summer experience since they began in 1965, transforming parks throughout the city into a patchwork of picnickers enjoying friends, family, and music under the stars, for free! Each concert concludes with a stunning fireworks display.

On June 4–7, 2025, Gustavo Dudamel — who becomes the Oscar L. Tang and H.M. Agnes Hsu-Tang Music & Artistic Director Designate in September — leads the Orchestra in performances in Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens.
