Date Night at The Met

FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS
5:00–9:00 PM

Have a night out at The Met! Every week we stay open late for Date Night. Stroll through the galleries, enjoy live music, and take part in fun activities. You can also enjoy two-for-one drinks specials from one of our cafes, or catch New York City skyline sunset views over Central Park from our Roof Garden.

Whether you're bringing a date, a friend, or coming solo, The Met is your perfect night out every Friday and Saturday.

All events are free with Museum admission, which is always pay-what-you-wish for New Yorkers.
