Coney Island Amphitheater

Coney Island Amphitheater is a 5,000-seat, covered open-air venue on the historic Coney Island Boardwalk, set within the Seaside Park and Community Arts Center and incorporating the restored Childs Building. It hosts concerts, comedy, family shows, and cultural events steps from the beach and amusement district, which means traffic on Surf Avenue and streets leading to the boardwalk is often heavy, especially on evenings and weekends. Booking parking near Coney Island Amphitheater in advance helps you skip circling, arrive on time, and spend more of your visit enjoying the show and shoreline.

Meters and posted regulations are strictly enforced in New York City, and all of NYC is a tow-away zone, so always read curbside signs carefully, observe time limits, and never double-park. Street parking can be metered and competitive around the boardwalk, and while there are paid lots in the area, they can fill quickly on popular dates; planning ahead reduces stress and avoids last-minute detours. Because the amphitheater sits within a waterfront complex with limited curb space, consider arriving early and using navigation to account for congestion, and always check the latest official guidance before you go.
