BECOME A 2026 SUMMERSTAGE MEMBER

Celebrate 40 years of SummerStage with VIP access to concerts featuring artists you love and those you will love to discover!

In addition to presale access, every SummerStage membership offers a select number of complimentary tickets for benefit concerts—including shows that are sold out! Complimentary tickets can be reserved or rescheduled at any time because we are committed to keeping your need for cost saving, flexibility, and value as our priority.  

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!
