'Jazz at Lincoln Center': Rooftop Rehearsal & Performance Experience

Access Jazz at Lincoln Center's glass-wrapped Dizzy's Club high above Columbus Circle for an intimate live jazz set — one of New York's most sophisticated and soulful evening experiences, with the Midtown skyline as your backdrop.

What to expect

Perched on the 5th floor of the Frederick P. Rose Hall at Columbus Circle, Dizzy's Club wraps you in mahogany, brick, and glass with an unbroken view of Central Park's treetops and the twinkling Midtown grid. Resident and visiting artists — often Grammy-caliber — perform two sets nightly (7:30 pm and 9:30 pm). The kitchen serves elevated American brasserie cuisine; cocktails are impeccably mixed. The 7:30 pm set is ideal for cruise passengers, allowing a comfortable return by 9:30 pm.

Good to know

Reserve a table (not just show tickets) directly on the Jazz at Lincoln Center website to secure a prime window seat — do this 3–4 weeks ahead for premium spots. Columbus Circle is 20–25 minutes from Pier 88/90 by cab. Dress code is smart casual at minimum; luxury travelers should lean toward cocktail attire. Confirm your ship's all-aboard time before booking — most late-evening sailings depart no earlier than 11 pm from New York.
