The Anne Loftus Playground, at the Broadway and Dyckman Street corner of Fort Tryon Park, hosts an afternoon evangelistic concert, a faith-based outreach event with live music in the open air. Park concerts like this are a longtime part of weekend life in Inwood and Washington Heights, staged where families already gather rather than inside a church. If you're uptown for the park or the Cloisters and enjoy church music, stop in.
What to expect
Expect a community-scale outdoor concert at the playground end of the park, with music alongside the spiritual messages that evangelistic events usually include. No performers have been announced, so treat it as a neighborhood gathering you can stop into while visiting Fort Tryon, not a ticketed show with a set bill.
Good to know
- The Dyckman St (A) station is right by the playground; Dyckman St (1) is a short walk east
- It's a religious outreach event, so expect faith-centered music and messages
- It's held at a playground, so it's easy with kids and strollers
- The Cloisters and Fort Tryon's Heather Garden are an uphill walk south through the park
- No lineup has been published, so it's best as a stop-in during a park visit
