Live entertainment is finally coming back in New York and it's coming right to you.
In an effort to jumpstart New York's struggling live entertainment sector, Governor Andrew Cuomo announced NY PopsUp, an unprecedented and expansive festival featuring hundreds of pop-up performances, with dozens of celebrities, that will come straight to you.
"Cities have taken a real blow during COVID, and the economy will not come back fast enough on its own - we must bring it back," Governor Cuomo said. "Creative synergies are vital for cities to survive, and our arts and cultural industries have been shut down all across the country, taking a terrible toll on workers and the economy. We want to be aggressive with reopening the State and getting our economy back on track, and NY PopsUp will be an important bridge to the broader reopening of our world-class performance venues and institutions. New York has been a leader throughout this entire pandemic, and we will lead once again with bringing back the arts."
