Are you traveling to New York in September? Besides making me very envious because you will be practically packing your bags, I will also tell you that this month is an excellent time to visit the city. Any time of the year is good to walk the streets of New York, but in September you will also enjoy some events such as Labor Day, the San Gennaro Festival, the New York Fashion Week or Brazilian Day. You can also attend, if you are a sports lover, one of the most important tournaments of the world tennis circuit, the US Open.
Enjoy New York in September
You have so many alternatives that the best thing you can do is to organize yourself well. For example,
September very attractive if you like sports. Are you more of a tennis fan or do you prefer physical contact? Either way, you have great options to have fun in New York during the month of September as far as sporting events are concerned. Specifically, the first week you can enjoy the most exciting and important matches of one of the tournaments that make up the tennis scene. Seeing that arm of Rafa Nadal grabbing a racquet to win matches in Queens must be unforgettable. But if what you like is to soak up the American way of life I recommend you go see an NFL game. It starts in September and you have several options because there are two New York teams in the city. If partying and parades are your thing, you are in luck. In the middle of the month you have in the heart of Manhattan, specifically in Little Italy, you can enjoy the celebration of St. Gennaro's Day.
Live music, contests, processions and lots of Italian food to taste. If you go to New York in September and you don't have a free time to go to this party, you don't know how to organize yourself well. As if that weren't enough, the first week of September is the start of one of the most important fashion events in the world. For 7 days, the most important personalities in the world of design and modeling will be presenting the new trends on the catwalks of New York. A good incentive without a doubt.
What about the weather? You will have no problem with the suitcase
September is a month of transition, and it's no exception in New York. We come from the heat of summer and the ninth month of the year helps us to progressively lengthen and fatten our clothes. However, we still have a few remnants of summer that will make our walks in the Big Apple very pleasant. It is true that the hours of sunshine are getting shorter,
shortening the days more and more. But, honestly, enjoying the spectacular lights of New York City is also a great incentive. In short, don't get complicated when packing your suitcase, remember the basics:
- Summery and comfortable clothing.
- Don't forget a couple of extra warm clothes, in case the autumn airs of New York want to make an appearance.
- Sunglasses, cap or hat, depending on your style, shoes so that your feet do not suffer after the walks in Central Park and little else. As I said, don't complicate things.
Remembrance of 9/11
September was etched in everyone's mind on its eleventh day. Not only for New Yorkers, but also for anyone who lived through that 9/11 in 2011. That's why every anniversary of the tragedy the city pays tribute to the victims and families with solemn and emotional events near the World Trade Center. If you wait for the night, you will see how two large spotlights are illuminated towards the sky simulating the Twin Towers.
