About Us:

The Rooftop at Pier 17 is New York City’s most dynamic open-air entertainment venue, set five stories above the East River. Concert goers annually see their favorite artists within an intimate atmosphere (3,500 capacity), all from a one-of-a-kind rooftop location with direct views of such iconic skyline landmarks as the Brooklyn Bridge, Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, and One World Trade Center.

The Rooftop at Pier 17, operated by Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. and in partnership with exclusive booking partner Live Nation Entertainment, Inc., launched its inaugural Summer Concert Series in 2018 with opening nights from Amy Schumer and Kings of Leon. A total of 23 shows that first year earned The Rooftop multiple accolades, including being named the “Best New Concert Venue” by Pollstar.

Since then, The Rooftop has hosted an eclectic lineup of talent to-date, including industry icons, the hottest new artists and more. Some performers who’ve graced the stage include: Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X, Ringo Starr, Kehlani, Machine Gun Kelly, Janelle Monáe, The Lumineers, Trevor Noah, Diana Ross, deadmau5, Noah Kahan, Zach Bryan, Tate McRae, and the Fugees, whose first reunited performance in over 15 years took place on The Rooftop at Pier 17 in 2021.

In addition to being an award-winning concert venue, the 1.5-acre rooftop is also a year-round event space, hosting movie nights, fitness classes, community events and seasonal activations, plus such past premiere events as UFC 244: Masvidal vs. Diaz press conference (2019), the ESPYs (2021) and the four-day Bored Ape Yacht Club’s ApeFest (2022) which featured major performers including Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Haim, LCD Soundsystem, and more.

In Manhattan, there are rooftops—and then there’s The Rooftop at Pier 17, where concerts are better with a view.
