Empire State Plaza events

The ⁠‌‌‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌‌​⁠Empire State Plaza is the vast modernist state government complex between the Capitol and the State Museum. Beyond the office towers it hosts public events: the state tree lighting with fireworks, holiday markets on the concourse, a winter ice rink, summer farmers markets and concerts on the plaza.
