Culture New York
Free concerts, family performances and dance nights make this Broadway-facing space a useful way into Lincoln Center without committing to a large concert hall.
Look at the programme before dropping in: free performances generally use first-come admission, with optional Fast Track access offered for selected dates. The Atrium also functions as a public gathering space, so daytime access and evening event admission serve different purposes.
