Deets: The annual Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts Summer Gala returns this June!

The event will help in kicking off the beloved ‘Summer for the City’ festival, which opens across the Lincoln Center campus on June 10.

This annual celebration brings together over 500 guests representing leadership from the corporate, philanthropic, media, entertainment, and civic sectors from across the world. Proceeds from the Gala support free programming at Lincoln Center for New Yorkers.

Global music superstar and EGOT-winner John Legend will perform at the 2026 Summer Gala, which will recognize previously-announced honorees Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) Co-President Andreas C. Dracopoulos and groundbreaking dancer, author, and advocate Misty Copeland. 

Hint for the Average Socialite: Tickets available now.
