Radio City Music Hall
Arts & Culture · New York, NY
About
Step inside and the massive Art Deco auditorium stops you cold. Radio City Music Hall opened in 1932 as the first building in the Rockefeller Center complex. With about 6,000 seats, it's hosted everyone from Aretha Franklin to Harry Styles, plus awards shows like the Tonys and Grammys. The Rockettes' Christmas Spectacular is its annual draw, but the calendar runs year-round with concerts and family shows.
For queer visitors, it's a mainstream venue that's hosted LGBTQ icons like Lady Gaga and Lizzo. The acoustics are stellar, and the Great Stage is one of the biggest in the world. Arrive early to admire the Grand Foyer's art and mirrors. It's a cab ride away from the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) if you're making a day of Midtown culture.
