Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Harvey Theater at BAM Strong

Brooklyn, NY 11217

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before showtime. This gives you time to pick up concessions, settle into your seats, and navigate security without rushing. If you’re driving, earlier is better — garages and metered spots can fill quickly near curtain time.

The Harvey is an indoor venue, so weather won’t impact the performance. That said, give yourself a few extra minutes in inclement weather for transit and curbside drop-off. Public transit is often the fastest way to the theater, with several lines stopping within a short walk.

Walking and elevation changes are minimal, and accessible routes and elevators are available. You’ll also find reliable cell service and Wi‑Fi in some BAM areas, but it’s still smart to download your tickets in advance to speed up entry.

Venue Navigation

The Harvey’s layout is straightforward: a classic proscenium stage with Orchestra, Mezzanine, and Balcony levels connected by accessible entrances and elevators. Ushers are on hand to direct you to your section and row.

Concessions open pre-show and during intermission, offering snacks, beverages, local beer and wine, and specialty cocktails. Restrooms and ATMs are part of the broader BAM complex, and select productions feature merchandise stands. Stop by the BAM visitor information desk for schedules, wayfinding, and event details.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
Charge your phone fully.
Review venue policies in advance.
Arrive early to enjoy concessions featuring local beer, wine, and specialty cocktails.
Check for lobby art installations or pre-show talks — the theater’s historic interior is a highlight in itself.

Pre-Event Planning

Make the most of your evening by arriving early to soak in the Harvey’s historic ambiance — the preserved, “distressed” interior is part of the performance experience. If your visit coincides with the BAM Next Wave Festival or an international premiere, expect extra buzz and plan arrival and seating time accordingly.

Meeting up with a group? Choose a clear rendezvous point like the main entrance on Fulton Street or the BAM visitor information desk before heading to your seats. Public transit remains the easiest way to arrive together, and if you’re dining first, Fort Greene and Downtown Brooklyn offer plenty of options within a few blocks.

If you like to read program notes or enjoy a quiet pre-show moment, aim for the earlier end of the 60–90 minute window. That’s also the best time to grab concessions and browse any production merchandise that may be available.
