The best things to do in NYC this weekend

The best things to do in NYC this weekend includes seeing live comedy in NYC parks, visiting just reopened museums and more.

“Fall is in full swing as we come upon a long weekend for Columbus Day and Indigenous Peoples Day, which means there’s more time to take advantage of all NYC has to offer right now. Get into the autumn swing of things by visiting Queens Farm and shopping its farm stand or head to the Guggenheim Museum to see a Jackson Pollock exhibit. Return to Ellen’s Stardust Diner for a nostalgic evening out or put on your cosplay for Comic Con. Whatever you do, make it a weekend to remember.”  (TONY)
