50 Safe Things to do in NYC Today (2021)

Bryant Park 2021 - Safe Fun Outdoors

Bryant Park is currently one of THE best and safest places to explore in NYC, whether with your family, your one-and-only or solo! Reservations are required for all activities except exploring The Shops and all activities seem to go through March 7, 2021.

• Eat in an Igloo - cozy up in your private, heated igloo and order some light bites and hot chocolate or wine. Reservations required.
• The Shops - browse your way safely through the open air, outdoor holiday market
• Curling Café - new in 2020, iceless curling, which is much harder than it looks, is pushing or throwing a heavy stone along an "ice" alley. Your reservation includes a dedicated curling lane and tent with food and drinks for 90 minutes.
• Ice Skating - a winter favorite every year in NYC. Skating is always free, but skate rentals charge a fee.
