Hudson Yards today unveiled its 2022 programming for Backyard at Hudson Yards presented by Wells Fargo, the ultimate outdoor entertainment destination for the whole family beginning May 5th. For the first time, Backyard at Hudson Yards will host a 10-week concert series programmed by The Bowery Presents featuring today’s emerging artists.

Summer Concerts at the Wells Fargo Stage will be joined by Backyard’s most popular programing from past years including: live sports tournaments on the 30-foot Big Screen; fun-filled kids programming and classes by CAMP and Union Square Play; fitness classes by SoulCycle; a multitude of outdoor dining options with a rotating selection of food trucks, as well as JIBS, the marina bar and lobster shack in the heart of Manhattan that became one of the City’s hottest tables last season; a series of outdoor movie screenings to close out the season; and more.

 “Over the years, New Yorkers have made Hudson Yards their home-away-from-home and we continually strive to show up for the greatest community in the world. This summer, we will be adding a weekly concert series offering yet another reason to gather with your friends, family, and colleagues to have fun and spread joy,” said Stacey Feder, Chief Marketing Officer of Hudson Yards. “With our partners at Wells Fargo, we are able to offer something for everyone, from foodies to families to music and movie buffs, consistently making Backyard one of the most vibrant outdoor destinations in the City.”
