Things To Do in NYC in June 2025

Things to do in NYC in June 2024, Pride Month (Alexander Grey/Pexels)
Things to do in NYC in June 2024, Pride Month (Alexander Grey/Pexels)

Things to do in NYC in June 2024 include: Bryant Park Picnic Performances, Blue Note Jazz Festival, BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn, Summer for the City, SummerStage, and more.

June is Pride Month. New York is a creative city so it is a very LGBTQ+ city. The Stonewall Riots of 1969 in Greenwich Village energized the Pride movement.

It’s also Caribbean Heritage Month. Caribbean heritage is mostly West African and Central African. In Cuba and Puerto Rico, Yoruba traditions have largely absorbed the Dahomey and Kongo traditions that also rooted in the Americas. Nigerian Yoruba New Year is June 3, so June is important in many Caribbean cultures.

June weather is early summer with average temperatures of 64-80°, so it’s warm.
