Homecoming Week: Mega Concert at the Great Lawn

Homecoming Week is a citywide celebration in New York City. After a rough 2020, Homecoming Week this year certainly hits different. While Homecoming Week has already begun, starting on August 14, it’s still running through August 22. One of the biggest celebrations you don’t want to miss during this amazing week is the Mega Concert at the Great Lawn in Central Park on August 21. Featured musicians you can expect at the concert include Jon Batiste; Andrea Bocelli; Kane Brown; LL Cool J; Elvis Costello; Lucky Daye; Journey; Earth, Wind, and Fire; Bruce Springsteen; and many more.

Of course, NYC comprises over two-fifths of NYS’s entire population, so parking can be a major hassle. The good news is that Icon Parking has you covered. Rent a space at our city parking garages over at 1056 5th Ave or at our parking garage on Claridge 87 on E 87th Street.

If you love Springsteen so much you not only want to see him at the Mega Concert on the 21st but also want to see him on Broadway, check out Springsteen on Broadway at the St. James Theatre now through September 4.
