The Seaport is about to get a whole lot better.<\/p>\n

Pier 17 \u2013 New York’s newest, massive rooftop space \u2013 is slated to come out this summer with a bang. And by “bang” we mean “A-list inaugural\u00a0concert series.”<\/p>\n

Booked by Live Nation, the\u00a0Pier 17 Rooftop Concert Series will be housed on top of an absolutely gigantic, 1.5-acre\u00a0rooftop boasting stunning views of the East River bridges and room for up to 3,400 standing guests. Featuring a wild, beetle-esque\u00a0canopy to hanging overhead, this open-air event space is pretty much guaranteed to become a summer favorite in no time.<\/p>\n

Of course, it certainly doesn’t hurt that the lineup for Pier 17’s inaugural concert series will host performances by hot-shots like comedian Amy Schumer and alt-rock gurus Kings of Leon. The series \u2013 which begins ticket sales for the general public on Friday, May 11th \u2013 will begin on August 1st, letting you wrap up your summer of fun in style.<\/p>\n

In addition to the rooftop concert series, Pier 17’s bottom two floors will also play host to ESPN’s new NYC digs, as well as food from chef\/superstars like\u00a0Andrew Carmellini.<\/p>\n
