Concert Series at Pier 17

Sheer Mag performing at Pier 17.

89 South Street, Pier 17, New York City, NY 10038, United States

While most modern concerts rely on digital imagery and projections to back up their music, Pier 17 offers a far more breathtaking backdrop—a sweeping rooftop view of the Manhattan skyline at sunset, the Statue of Liberty on the horizon. Since its founding in 2018, the Rooftop at Pier 17 has hosted over 60 shows a season, drawing crowds to an array of different genres. This year’s concert series looks to be electrifying for all types of listeners, and includes artists such as Supergrass, Royel Otis, Andy Grammar, and Kneecap. —Hannah Gross
