Joel and I just received word that we will be traveling to New York City from June 21-24th. I am so psyched! We get to travel to & from the airport in a LIMO! We're staying at the Millenium Broadway Hotel right in the heart of Broadway!!!! Lots to do and to see. Of course, seeing one play on Broadway will be on the agenda & I've looked up some NYC resources (4 days is just not enough to do everything, but we'll try to get as much in as we can!)June Weather:
- Average High: 79°F (26°C)
- Average Low: 64°F (18°C)
- June's warm weather welcomes visitors to New York City who want to enjoy walking the streets of New York City, and the many exciting summer activities in the city.
What to Wear:
- pack an umbrella
- a sweater
- closed toe shoes, comfortable for walking and water-resistant if possible
- a picnic blanket is great if you want to check out some of the free concerts and movies
June Perks:
- warm weather for visiting New York City, but not as hot as the rest of summer
- perfect time of year for New York's many walking tours
- the annual Museum Mile Festival
- many summer concerts and outdoor film festivals to see (most of which are free!)
- Restaurant Week returns, so enjoy the opportunity to try some of New York City's restaurants at bargain prices
June Cons:
- warmer weather
- more crowds, especially later in the month when schools are out
Good to Know:
- If you want to go to any of the movies or free concerts in New York City parks, bring a blanket and pack a picnic dinner -- you can even bring some wine and beer if you're discrete. It's a great experience and truly gives you a taste of being a local New Yorker.

- Museum Mile Festival
- Belmont Stakes
- Puerto Rican Day Parade
- Met Opera in the Parks
