Car Rental New York and The Seaport Music Festival

Whoever said "the best things in life are free" obviously spent an evening rocking out at the Seaport Music Festival in New York City. This exciting live music extravaganza is presented entirely free of charge, providing car rental New York travelers and locals alike with access to over a dozen live musical performances. The party starts in late May and continues right through the first week of September, so get ready to rock. Head to the South Street Seaport and enjoy a night of unforgettable free music.

A look at how the Festival works

There's really no reason why car rental New York travelers shouldn't attend at least one of the Seaport Music Festival's concerts. Firstly, the shows are all utterly and completely free. There's no admission to pay, no tickets to purchase and no fees to negotiate. It's all free, plain and simple. All shows get underway at 7pm, but if you're in the area earlier by all means, drop by. A guest DJ normally kick-starts the evening around 6pm, providing eager front-row concert enthusiasts something to chill-out to. Parking is prevalent in the area, with a number of lots located just 1 or 2 blocks away.

Past performers at the Festival

The Seaport Music Festival has proudly hosted some of the coolest independent bands in America, unleashing innovative music up and down the Seaport waterfront. If you were one of the lucky car rental New York travelers to attend last year's festival you would have enjoyed performances by DJ Mike Wolf, Atlas Sound and Oneida. White Williams and Crystal Stills have also taken to the stage at Pier 17. Heck, there's even been a classical music concert presented in conjunction with the Seaport Festival (The Brooklyn Philharmonic String orchestra put on a free concert and fireworks show in 2008). Other past performers have included Dirty Projects, Telepathe and King Khan & the Shrines.
