A day-long musical event and a fast-paced metropolis may seem like odd bedfellows, but New York music festivals manage to make it work. Using any scrap of appropriate space available, these sprawling sonic happenings remain high points of the Big Apple’s year, even if they don’t bring the miles of tent living and drug experimentation so valued by institutions like Bonaroo and Burning Man.
Usually, NYC music festivals go down in one of the city’s open areas: the Governor’s Ball Music Festival and the Vans Warped Tour take over the dusty open plain of Randall’s Island, while the CBGB Festival is located on the main stage in Central Park. Others, like NYC Popfest, take the SXSW route of scheduling multiple indie shows at small venues throughout a single neighborhood or two. But in truth, big music festivals like Ozzfest and The Bamboozle always fall to arenas in New Jersey, where fans can wander the streets and check out live outdoor music without a million exhausted young professionals shoving past them.
Not that music festivals in New York proper are unheard of; occasionally, larger venues will turn their many rooms into all-day events. Overall, though, it’s the city’s periphery where one finds the best full-on festival experience.
