If loving Love Island is wrong, I don’t wanna be right. Somehow, this season has enough fries, burgers, and pancake talk to make me hungry through the screen. Luckily, I’m heading to The Granola Bar today ahead of its opening, and trust me, I WILL be reporting back tomorrow.

Until then, let’s redirect this appetite toward free tickets: musical genius Joe Hisaishi, known for scoring beloved Studio Ghibli classics, returns to Radio City with live piano, orchestra, and scenes projected on screen. Enter to win tickets.

I’ve learned in life that very few things are actually free. Free couch? Suspicious stain. Free advice? Usually from someone who needs advice. But DoNYC ticket giveaways? Just free. Costs nothing to enter, nothing to redeem, and you could win tickets to summer’s best shows. Wild concept. We know.

UPCOMING SHOWS AT KINGS THEATRE

Seeing a show at Kings Theatre feels like two plans in one: the performance you came for, plus one of Brooklyn’s prettiest rooms. Inspired by the Palace of Versailles, it’s all gold details, huge ceilings, and a season of shows worth getting there early for.
