West 64th After Dark

Josie Robertson Plaza puts public social dancing beside Lincoln Center’s Revson Fountain at 10 Lincoln Center Plaza. The summer program includes silent discos and performances around the outdoor dance floor. Daily choreographed water shows animate the fountain, while illuminated architecture shapes the evening setting. Theatergoers can use the plaza as a post-show hangout, and late hours bring peaceful solitude. The public space is open 24 hours every day.
