Best Summer Music Festivals to See in 2023 From Pop to EDM to Opera

August 11, 2024

Hi there, I’m Christopher Tkaczyk, and I’m working with the Pursuits team while our deputy editor James Gaddy is out on paternity leave (congrats, Jim!). I spent years at Fortune magazine as well as Travel + Leisure, but one of my biggest passions is music, especially summer festivals.

On a warm evening, there’s nothing better than gathering with friends for an outdoor concert, having a picnic and enjoying a live performance while the sun sets. Since moving to the Adirondacks during the pandemic, I miss the days when I would attend concerts by the New York Philharmonic or the Metropolitan Opera on the Great Lawn of Central Park.
