Welcome to Brooklyn Bridge Park. Explore the sweeping vistas, rich ecology, expansive piers, and vibrant programming of this special waterfront park. Plan Your Visit
Visiting The Park. Brooklyn Bridge Park is an 85-acre world-class waterfront park with rolling hills, riverfront promenades, lush gardens, and spectacular city views.
How do I get to Brooklyn Bridge Park? Brooklyn Bridge Park is accessible by several subway lines (A/C, 2/3, 4/5, F, R) and bus routes (B25, B61, B63, B67). Visitors can also arrive via the NYC Ferry at Fulton Ferry Landing and Pier 6 .
Some activities at Brooklyn Bridge Park require obtaining a permit. Read more below about when and how to obtain a permit. Free, outdoor public space is critical. At Brooklyn Bridge Park, we have always prioritized free public events, activities, and classes.
The Conservancy’s Movies With A View takes place every Thursday evening in July and August on Pier 1’s Harbor View Lawn. There is no better place to be on a hot summer night than watching a classic film and enjoying the breeze off of the East River with the dazzling Manhattan skyline before you.
Discover all the park has to offer and join the fun. Explore. Sports & Fitness. Family Friendly. Art & Nature.
The area that is today Brooklyn Bridge Park was, at different times in its history, a site of bustling commerce, a transportation terminal, an entry point for immigrants, an artistic and activist center, and finally, a world-class park visited by millions every year.
In addition to our popular Pebble Beach and nautical-themed playground, Main Street features an expanded and elevated lawn, an upgraded dog run, Main Street Terrace, and an entry plaza at Washington Street.
Brooklyn Bridge Park is a great place to host your wedding ceremony, elopement, vow renewal, or special day! However, due to the popularity of the waterfront location, ceremonies can only be held in three different locations and must follow specific rules outlined below.
Join us this fall as we celebrate the changing of the seasons at the Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy’s Sound & Color! Autumn in New York fall festival. Enjoy live musical performances, food vendors, kids activities, arts and crafts, field games and more—including our signature pumpkin patch.
