Celebrate Brooklyn! kicks off the night with their Opening Night Gala and a free concert featuring pianist, singer and Brooklynite Norah Jones. Jones’ irresistible mix of jazz, folk, soul and a little country made her a household name when her debut album Come Away With Me won eight Grammys and went diamond.
Celebrate Brooklyn! is one of New York City’s longest running, free, outdoor performing arts festivals. Launched in 1979 as a catalyst for a Brooklyn performing arts scene and to bring people back into Prospect Park after years of neglect, Celebrate Brooklyn! has been an anchor in the park’s revitalization and has become one of the city’s foremost summer cultural attractions. Over its history, Celebrate Brooklyn! has presented over 1,700 artists and ensembles reflective of the borough’s diversity, ranging from internationally acclaimed performers to emerging, cutting-edge artists. All Celebrate Brooklyn! performances are free! The festival attracts upwards of 250,000 attendees from across New York City to the Prospect Park Bandshell each summer. Celebrate Brooklyn! has a well developed membership program with over 500 seasonal members. Benefits of membership include express entry, reserved seating, pre-concert receptions and more.
Come join us for a night of music and entertainment in the heart of Brooklyn. I'm a Brooklyn girl so you know I'll be there. And it's a free concert so who can pass up an opportunity like this. Bring a friend, a family member, a date, and have a wonderful evening out in Prospect Park. You know you want to. Comment and let me know if your going? Can't wait to see you there! Glitz Lipz Out!
