Why has CarnegieKids moved to Zankel Hall?
The concert has moved to Zankel Hall so that students of all ages can experience our world class artists in a professional concert hall that is also one of Carnegie Hall's three stages.

Top

May I take photos and videos at CarnegieKids?
No, photography and videography are not permitted at CarnegieKids concerts.

Top

When do the doors open before the CarnegieKids concert? When should I arrive?
Doors open 30 minutes before each concert. As these events are general admission (no assigned seats), the earlier you arrive, the closer you'll be to the stage.

Before the CarnegieKids concert, buses should drop children off on the east side of Seventh Avenue, facing south, in front of the Zankel Hall marquee.
