BARGE MUSIC, a Thursday Night Jazz Series, is located at Fulton Ferry Landing near the Brooklyn Bridge.

Imagine a truly unique New York City location with charm, history and spectacular water views: a location that will delight even the most sophisticated socialite or businessperson. And envision this against the magnificent backdrop of the New York City skyline.

The venue is Bargemusic, a floating concert hall that The New York Times calls "inviting... ideally intimate... with grand views." The 102-foot long covered barge, which was once used to transport coffee, is beloved by discriminating concertgoers around the world and is now one of New York City's most unusual and enchanting event venues.

Located at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge, Bargemusic began its Thursday night JAZZ Series in June 2007. Please find the schedule below with more performances to come!

Directions: Take the A train to High Street station (Use the Fulton Street Exit. Walk downhill on Cadman Plaza West to the East River, 3 blocks); F train to York Street (go right on Jay to Front Street. On Front Street turn left, and turn right on Old Fulton Street; walk downhill to the river); or 2 or 3 train to Clark Street station (walk west on Clark Street to Columbia Heights; turn right; walk downhill to the end of the street).
