Garden Party

The Center has been a place of celebration and Pride for all LGBTQ+ New Yorkers since our founding in 1983, and this year’s Garden Party will be no exception.

Garden Party is a unique outdoor Pride celebration that kicks off Pride Week in New York City. The evening features various light bites, open bar (varies by ticket type), music from select NYC DJs, special guests, and more. Join us as we celebrate Pride and our vibrant LBGTQ+ community!
