NYC April Events and Activities Calendar

New York City Events April 2023 include Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Seinfeld, Billy Joel, Bono, tons of comedy shows (April Fools!!!), NY Auto Show and Earth Day. Broadway is star-studded this month with Josh Groban & Annaleigh Ashford starring in Sweeney Todd; Lea Michele & Tovah Feldschuh selling out Funny Girl and Jessica Chastain in A Doll’s House.

The New York Yankees, Mets and NYCFC kick off their seasons, just as the Nets, Knicks and Rangers are (hopefully) heading to the Playoffs. April is also a fantastic shopping and sample sale month, and the weather is usually quite nice, unless we get too much rain.
