West Side Fest

The annual anchor event of the West Side Cultural Network—a group of museums, parks, performing arts centers, and cultural institutions, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, the High Line, and the Shed, located within a half-mile portion of historic New York— is West Side Fest. West Side Fest offers three days of festivities, including free admission, crafts for kids and families, artmaking activities for all ages, performances, special indoor and outdoor programming, and much more. New Yorkers and visitors of all ages are invited to celebrate the vibrant, cultural village along the waterfront of Manhattan’s West Side.

West Side Fest highlights the city’s newest cultural destination on the western edge of Manhattan, a historic area with a welcoming and unique mix of fresh activities, open gathering spaces, and more. Since 2023, West Side Fest has received leadership support from Google.org and Bloomberg Connects.
