Rayburn Concert Tours manager, Jo Porter, told 4BR: "Our time in New York has been incredibly valuable, enabling us to develop our itinerary ideas with new knowledge of venues, excursions and accommodation.

We can now provide our customers with more variety, and as such, we are able to drive down the cost for our customers. With the knowledge and expertise to deliver a first class concert tour to New York, we are now able to offer the same premium package whilst saving our customers money — which is really exciting for us!"

Tour The Big Apple

Uncover New York's fascinating history, perform in its many spectacular venues and set your sights as high as the skyscrapers on a big concert tour to the Big Apple!

Where can you perform?

What about the iconic Naumburg Bandshell in the heart of Central Park, or the contemporary Liberty Science Centre, or even the deck of USS Intrepid or in the world-renowned UN building!

Plus more!

What sights can you see?

Before delving into the city itself, you can take in the panoramic views from either the Empire State Building or the Rockefeller Centre, find a green sanctuary in the concrete jungle and spend an afternoon in Central Park or even pay a visit to Liberty Island or 'give your regards' to Broadway'!
