(Sold Out) A Night at Niblo’s Garden
This popular event is back for 2016 and better than ever! Imagine an outdoor pleasure dome, strung with lights, adorned with fountains and featuring the top musicians, dancers and entertainers of the time. That was the scene at Niblo’s Garden – the premier entertainment house of the 19th century. Niblo himself had a habit of turning his Green-Wood mausoleum – built years before his death – into a pleasure garden of its own, with friends, picnics, and entertainment. Rumor has it he even stocked the nearby Crescent Water with goldfish.
