Jazz at Lincoln Center, Performing arts center in Manhattan, United States
Jazz at Lincoln Center is a performing arts center in Manhattan with three concert halls: the Rose Theater, the Appel Room, and Dizzy's Club. Each venue offers different seating capacities and acoustics suited to various music styles and event sizes.
The center began in 1987 as a concert series and grew into an independent arts institution that became part of Lincoln Center's structure in 1996. This growth helped establish jazz as a serious art form in American cultural life.
The orchestra performs jazz compositions from legendary musicians, keeping these musical traditions alive for audiences today. The performances show how jazz continues to bring artists and listeners together across generations.
The venue has a box office on the ground floor of the Time Warner Center where you can buy tickets in person or online in advance. It helps to book ahead since popular shows often sell out quickly.
The Appel Room features a 150-foot-tall glass wall overlooking Central Park and Columbus Circle, bringing natural daylight into performances. This space offers visitors the unusual experience of watching live music with the city skyline framed behind the stage.
