Hugh Jackman hosts, with appearances from Rachel Brosnahan and Gayle King. Gates open at 2 PM, music starts at 4 PM, there is no entry after 8 PM, and the show ends around 10 PM. Important: this is not a walk-up free concert. Global Citizen tickets are earned, not given away at the gate.

Paid General Admission and VIP tickets are also sold separately. The festival is standing-room, rain or shine, with no re-entry and a strict small-clear-bag policy, so read the official ticket page before you plan your day.

It is a three-band package of acts that came up in the 1990s and 2000s alternative scene, which makes the undercard as much of a draw as the headliner. Barclays Center opens doors 60 minutes before the scheduled start. With three sets, an earlier arrival is a good idea if you want to see The Shins and Silversun Pickups. The arena sits at Atlantic and Flatbush avenues directly above the Atlantic Av–Barclays Ctr subway station, with LIRR service next door at Atlantic Terminal.

Don Omar

Sat, Oct 10, 2026 · 8:00 PM ETBarclays Center · Brooklyn

Don Omar brings The Last King World Tour to Barclays Center on Saturday, October 10, 2026 at 8 PM. It is one of two New York-area nights on the tour: according to the artist's official tour list, he plays Brooklyn on October 10 and Newark on October 11, part of a North American run that began in Reading, Pennsylvania in late September. For fans who grew up on the reggaetón pioneer's catalog, this is a chance to see him in a Brooklyn arena setting rather than a festival slot. Barclays Center opens doors 60 minutes before the scheduled start. The arena sits at Atlantic and Flatbush avenues above the Atlantic Av–Barclays Ctr subway station, which is served by several lines, plus the LIRR at Atlantic Terminal.

The Chicks

Sat, Oct 10, 2026 · 8:00 PM ETBeacon Theatre · New York

The Beacon run has three nights — October 10, 12 and 13 — in a roughly 2,800-seat Upper West Side theater, far smaller than the arenas the group usually plays. This page covers opening night, Saturday, October 10, 2026 at 8 PM, with doors at 7 PM. It is the only weekend date of the three. Use the Beacon Theatre entrances off Broadway or Amsterdam Avenue between West 74th and West 75th streets. MSG's policy requires bags to fit comfortably under your seat.

Barclays Center bills the night as "7 Years + 13 of The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me in Concert." For a band whose roots are just down the LIRR on Long Island, a Brooklyn arena date on this anniversary run carries some hometown weight. Doors open 60 minutes before showtime. Barclays Center is above the Atlantic Av–Barclays Ctr subway station, with LIRR service at Atlantic Terminal next door.

Sat, Oct 31, 2026 · 7:00 PM ETBarclays Center · Brooklyn

The Venezuelan band, winners of GRAMMY and Latin GRAMMY awards, announced the North American and European legs of the tour in March 2026, adding to a previously announced Latin America and Spain run. One detail worth noting: Barclays Center's listing says the date is subject to change because of the WNBA playoffs, so check the venue page before you make plans around it.

Young Miko

Thu, Nov 5, 2026 · 8:00 PM ETBarclays Center · Brooklyn

Pollstar reported that the Puerto Rican rapper and singer-songwriter's 31-date, 11-country tour began with European festival dates in July, moved through a North American arena run, and wraps in Brooklyn. A tour finale tends to be a special night for an artist, and this is the last stop on the itinerary. Barclays Center opens doors 60 minutes before the scheduled start. The arena is directly above the Atlantic Av–Barclays Ctr subway station in Prospect Heights.

Dave Matthews Band

MSG asks guests to arrive early, check their ticket for the suggested entrance, and bring bags small enough to fit under the seat.

MSG asks guests to arrive early, check their ticket for the suggested entrance, and bring bags small enough to fit under the seat.

The tour supports (((((ultraSOUND))))), the band's album on Warner Records.

Barclays Center is at Atlantic and Flatbush avenues, directly above the Atlantic Av–Barclays Ctr subway station, with LIRR service next door at Atlantic Terminal.

sombr with Dove Cameron and Hannah Jadagu

Mon, Nov 23, 2026Madison Square Garden · New York

sombr brings the You Are The Reason Tour to Madison Square Garden on Monday, November 23, 2026 at 7 PM, with doors at 6 PM and special guests Dove Cameron and Hannah Jadagu. It is the first of two consecutive MSG nights, with the second on Tuesday, November 24. Both openers are listed for both nights on MSG's event pages. The shows fall the week of Thanksgiving, so leave extra travel time around Penn Station. Madison Square Garden sits above Penn Station. MSG asks guests to arrive early, check their ticket for the suggested entrance, and bring bags small enough to fit under the seat.

The 27-city North American tour celebrates Frequency Of Love, the three-time GRAMMY winner's album due October 2, 2026 on Lovett Music/RCA Records. The Infosys Theater is the smaller theater inside the MSG complex, so this is a more intimate setting than the arena upstairs — worth knowing if you are choosing between tour dates. Use the Madison Square Garden entrance on Seventh Avenue between West 31st and West 33rd streets. The show falls two days before Thanksgiving.

sombr with Dove Cameron and Hannah Jadagu

Brent Faiyaz Live: I Spent The Night With Brent Faiyaz

Brent Faiyaz brings Brent Faiyaz Live: I Spent The Night With Brent Faiyaz to Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Thursday, December 3, 2026, with the show starting at 8:00 PM and doors opening at 7:00 PM. The New York date is the middle stop of a three-city arena run with Chicago and Los Angeles — his first headlining shows in three years. Expect the Grammy-nominated R&B singer to pull from his latest album, Icon, alongside songs from across his catalog. For anyone searching for Brent Faiyaz in NYC, this is the one Brooklyn night on the run and one of the standout R&B concerts in New York this December. Tickets are sold through Ticketmaster via Barclays Center. Barclays Center sits at 620 Atlantic Avenue at Flatbush Avenue, above the Atlantic Av–Barclays Ctr subway station.

Ripe — New Year's Eve

Thu, Dec 31, 2026 · 10:00 PM ETBrooklyn Bowl · New York

Boston horn-driven funk band Ripe headline New Year's Eve at Brooklyn Bowl, doors at 6:00 PM and the show at 10:00 PM. Brooklyn Bowl is the rare NYE venue that is a concert hall, a bowling alley and a fried-chicken restaurant at once, which makes the long gap between doors and showtime useful rather than dead time. The Williamsburg warehouse holds a wide standing floor plus lanes and balcony seating, and Ripe's live set is built for a crowd that wants to dance through midnight. 21+ with tickets through the venue.

New Year's Eve with Liz Callaway at 54 Below

Thu, Dec 31, 2026 · 7:00 PM ET54 Below · New York

Broadway favorite Liz Callaway rings in 2027 at 54 Below, the intimate nonprofit cabaret beneath Studio 54. The Emmy winner and Grammy- and Tony-nominated singer performs with her band, moving through stage and screen favorites, timeless standards and a few surprises across an early-evening New Year's Eve set. Doors open at 5:30 PM for the 7:00 PM show, so it's an easy fit before a later midnight plan. General seating runs $47 to $107.50 including fees, with VIP and premium seats also offered, plus a $25 food and beverage minimum. An optional $125 New Year's Eve prix fixe menu is available in place of the regular menu. For anyone searching for NYE concerts in NYC with a more elegant, cabaret-style feel, this is one of the most personal ways to say goodbye to 2026.

William Black — New Year's Eve

Thu, Dec 31, 2026 · 10:00 PM ETBrooklyn Steel · New York

Melodic bass producer William Black closes out the year at Brooklyn Steel, doors at 10:00 PM. The converted industrial space off Frost Street is built for exactly this — a big sound system, a wide floor and a late start that puts the countdown mid-set rather than at the door. It is a 21+ standing event in East Williamsburg, reachable via the L to Graham Avenue or a short car ride from Greenpoint and Bushwick. Tickets go through the promoter's official page; there is no dinner component, so eat on Metropolitan Avenue first.

Chris Botti — New Year's Eve at Blue Note

Thu, Dec 31, 2026Blue Note Jazz Club · New York

Trumpeter Chris Botti finishes his annual Blue Note holiday residency on December 31, closing the run on New Year's Eve in the basement room on West Third Street. Botti's residency is a Village institution — a small stage, a band that has played these rooms for years, and a set that leans on ballads and standards rather than spectacle. Showtimes on New Year's Eve differ from the rest of the residency and the sources we checked did not agree, so we have deliberately left the time off this listing rather than publish a wrong one — confirm your set time on the official ticketing page when you book. Seating is by reserved table or bar stool with a per-person minimum.

New Year's Eve with Jennifer Simard at 54 Below

Thu, Dec 31, 2026 · 11:00 PM ET54 Below · New York

Three-time Tony nominee Jennifer Simard, star of Broadway's Death Becomes Her, takes the 54 Below stage for the late show on New Year's Eve, carrying the room right through midnight into 2027. Expect a specially built set list that leans into her powerhouse voice and razor-sharp comedic timing. Doors open at 10:00 PM and the show starts at 11:00 PM. Online seating runs $80 to $168 including fees, with VIP and premium options above that. A $125 New Year's Eve prix fixe is mandatory for every guest (beverages, tax and gratuity not included). If you want a New Year's Eve in NYC that's part Broadway concert, part comedy and all countdown, this is the late-night cabaret pick.

Birdland Big Band New Year's Eve with Emma Smith

Thu, Dec 31, 2026 · 11:00 PM ETBirdland Jazz Club · New York

The Birdland Big Band takes the New Year's Eve late set at 11:00 PM with vocalist Emma Smith out front, which means the countdown happens with a full horn section in the room on West 44th Street. It is a sit-down club show a block from Times Square: reserved seating, a food and drink minimum, and a swing-era repertoire played by a working New York band. For anyone who wants midnight in Midtown without standing in a police pen outdoors, this is the version of that night worth booking. Ages 10 and up are admitted.

Marc Rebillet — New Year's Eve

Thu, Dec 31, 2026 · 9:00 PM ETBowery Ballroom · New York

Marc Rebillet plays Bowery Ballroom on New Year's Eve, doors at 9:00 PM. Rebillet builds everything live — loop pedal, keyboard, whatever the room hands him — so no two shows land the same way, which makes a midnight-adjacent set in a 575-capacity Lower East Side room about as high-variance as NYE entertainment gets. This is a standing show for over-21s, not a table-service party: no dinner, no open bar, just a small loud room and an improviser working it. Delancey Street puts you steps from the F, J and M trains and a dense run of LES bars for after.

Marilyn Maye's New Year's Eve Extravaganza

Thu, Dec 31, 2026Birdland Theater · New York

Marilyn Maye — a working cabaret singer into her late nineties and a genuine American songbook institution — plays her New Year's Eve Extravaganza in the downstairs Birdland Theater. The room is small, the arrangements are live and unhurried, and the between-song storytelling is half the reason people book it every year. Sources disagreed on the exact set time for December 31, so we have left the time blank here instead of guessing; check the official Birdland calendar when you reserve. Seating is assigned with a food and drink minimum, ages 10 and up.

Harlem Gospel Choir — New Year's Eve Brunch Show

Thu, Dec 31, 2026 · 1:30 PM ETBlue Note Jazz Club · New York

The Harlem Gospel Choir plays the Blue Note's 1:30 PM brunch set on New Year's Eve — a full choir, a live band and a Village jazz basement in daylight. It is one of the club's longest-running weekend traditions and an easy answer for visitors who want live music in New York on December 31 without committing to a midnight party. Tickets include the brunch service format the club uses for these sets; seating is at tables and bar seats. Being done by mid-afternoon in Greenwich Village leaves the rest of the night open for dinner downtown or a countdown elsewhere.
