Go to a Gospel Mass
Attending a Gospel Mass has recently become very popular among tourists, so much so that there are even excursions to attend them.
They take place in the churches of Harlem and many agencies will tell you that it is dangerous to go on your own, but the truth is that you can go perfectly without any problem, always keeping the usual security measures.
Masses take place on Sundays and tourists are always welcome, but you have to remember that these are real religious celebrations, so you always have to be respectful, dress suitably and sit at the back of the church to leave the faithful in the front rows.
Although admission is free, don’t forget to make a donation that will be well received. And keep in mind that they usually last 2 hours and that it is not mandatory to stay until the end, but when you decide to leave, do so discreetly and without interrupting the celebration.
sports shows
If you are a sports lover, and even if you are not, in New York you are in luck, because almost every day there is an event that you can attend and enjoy. Americans experience sports as a great party and sometimes enjoy what surrounds the sport more than the sport itself.
The most common is to go see a Yankees baseball game or a New York Knicks basketball game. The former are usually held almost every day and the schedules are also of all kinds.
In this case, you must remember that the stadium is in the Bronx, so if you decide to go it is better to do it during the day. If you go to basketball, the Knicks games are at Madison Square Garden and they are usually every 3 or 4 days.
You also have the possibility of going to an Ice Hockey game, American Football or if you go in September, the US Open tennis game.
