Cool Things to Do in NYC in March 2018

Here’s the truth about March: It can be a rough one. Like, why is it still cold?!  The good news: Spring is definitely around the corner, in fact it officially kicks off on March 20th, that magical equinox when the sun again ventures north of the equator. And while we know you’re super busy being a parent (us too), working (yep), side hustling (surely), and trying to squeeze in some fitness (always), we also know that you’re not living here for the weather! And once again NYC is delivering a month full of amazing things to do. So get a sitter (yes, ulterior motive), get tickets, and go enjoy this glorious city you’re privileged to call home. We compiled this quick list of cool things to do in NYC in March 2018 to get you planning – see you there?
