The Highline Ballroom, along with Liberty Event Management & Water Taxi Beach, is proud to announce The Beach on Governors Island. This unique venue will quickly become New York’s premier live outdoor venue, resting on the coast of the New York Harbor, providing stunning views of Lower Manhattan. In addition to the concert area, The Beach will feature a café, several bars, and a shaded courtyard beer garden. The Beach isn’t just a concert venue; it’s an experience.
Governors Island, in the heart of New York Harbor, is only 800 yards from Lower Manhattan, and even closer to Brooklyn. The Beach @ Governor’s Island, will operate in conjunction with NY Water Taxi, who will be providing continuous ferry service to the island for ticket holders on their fleet of boats.
Getting to Governors island is just a quick, 5-minute boat ride away. The concerts listed below will be accessible via New York Water Taxi. The Water Taxis will leave every 15 minutes from the Battery Maritime Building Slip 7 on the Southern Tip of Manhattan, located next to the Staten Island Ferry Terminal. The first ferry will leave at the published show door time. Additional pickup locations may be added.
The closest subway stations to the Battery Maritime Building are: 1 at South Ferry, W at South Ferry, and 5 at Bowling Green. It is also a short walk from the Wall Street Area. Various city bus lines also service the Battery Park Area with stops near the ferry terminal. Taxis and car may pull directly in front of the terminal for drop offs only. There is NO parking at the terminal.
Your Concert Ticket is your Roundtrip Ferry Pass, no additional tickets are needed. See individual show pages for ferry times and schedules, as they are subject to change.
