Wollman Rink in New York City’s Central Park celebrates its 75th anniversary with dozens of free, family-friendly events through September. Operated by Wollman Park Partners, the venue will host an array of weekly free experiences.
Every other Thursday the space hosts family-friendly movies under the stars. The current lineup includes Hamilton (June 4), Wicked: For Good (June 18) and Captain America: Brave New World (July 2), with additional screenings to be announced.
Every other Sunday, 11 a.m.–1 p.m., visitors may enjoy a free scoop of ice cream from official sponsor Mikey Likes It Ice Cream at the Overlook, while supplies last. On select Saturdays Arthur Murray Broadway Dance Studio hosts free dance lessons. Every other Tuesday and Friday, My Gym hosts interactive programming for kids of all ages.
“This winter was unlike any other in recent history, and now New Yorkers are ready to get outside, reconnect with friends, and feel part of their community again,” said Stacy Shuster, VP of Business Development and Community Impact, Wollman Rink. “Wollman Rink is a fun, accessible destination and these free weekly events reflect Wollman Park Partner’s commitment to New York City and bringing locals, families, and visitors together.”
Check out the calendar for a full list of events. Additional free programming may be announced throughout the season.
