NYCPlayground originated as an effort to keep everyone informed of unique events in New York City. The city itself is a playground, and we hope this site is a way to keep informed of the best it has to offer.

A Different and Better Concept
What separates this site from other events sites is that it does not list everything. The events listed here are posted by us and our subscribers and monitored regularly by us for bogus postings. Since events are posted by our readers, some of them cannot be found on any other site. As editors-in-chief we reserve the right to remove any events posted simply as advertisement. If an event doesn't meet our criteria of cultural, cool, unique, or outright wierd, it gets booted. Think of NYCplayground as a sort of filter for all of the information out there. There are no guarantees, especially with regards to events that only occur once. We have no idea how each event will turn out. But if you page through the events already listed we're sure you'll agree most of them are interesting and many are an outright surprise!

No Event Pushing
There is no advertising on this site and we hope to keep it that way.... If the workload gets too heavy we might consider it but promise to be picky and keep ads low key. Of course we only have to worry about that if the site takes off... and that is up to you.

The Future
Right now the site is open for anyone to post. This may change in the future as the community grows. For now enjoy the freedom! Among future features to be added: have events in your area of interest emailed to you as they come in; one click procedure to add events to your Microsoft Outlook; postings search, and rankings of the most popular events posted. If you would like to be informed of these new features as they are added please join our mailing list in the Options section. The mailing list will ONLY be used for this purpose - we hate spam too!
