PUT YOUR NAME ON 40 YEARS OF SUMMERSTAGE!
SummerStage is turning 40 — and we’re spending the summer celebrating. For four decades, we’ve danced, grooved, and made memories with over seven million New Yorkers across all five boroughs. And now, you can be a part of our history! Leave your mark on one of our VIP seats in our flagship Central Park venue.
For a contribution of $5,000, you can place a personalized plaque on a seat in the Members Terrace at our flagship Central Park Venue and commemorate your love for SummerStage, honor a loved one, or mark a moment that matters to you. Seats are limited, so don’t wait.
