CANCELLED: This Land Was Made for You and Me
CANCELLED: This Land Was Made for You and Me
Since the remainder of our 2019-2020 season was canceled due to COVID-19, we have sincerely appreciated the continued support and generosity of our loyal New York Pops audience during this difficult time.
We had hoped to proceed with our 2020-2021 season as planned. However, due to the ongoing restrictions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Carnegie Hall has made the difficult decision to cancel all in-person events through April 5, 2021.
For more information, please visit Carnegie Hall's website.
Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to the day we can all share in the joy of music again.
In the meantime, if you would like to support The New York Pops, please consider making a donation to our Keep the Music Playing COVID-19 Relief Fund.
