Now in its fourth season, the family- and dog-friendly space transforms the JFK Promenade’s Golden Mile into a vibrant weekend destination filled with drinks, lawn games, public art, and curated local food trucks. Located just west of the Rose Garden near 14th Avenue East Meadow, the Whale’s Tail is open every Saturday and Sunday afternoon (noon to 6pm) through October 2025, plus select holiday Mondays.

We’re kicking off our 2025 season with an opening weekend you don’t want to miss!

Bring the whole family (pups and kids welcome!) and enjoy live music, outdoor DJ jams, lawn games, an interactive animal exhibit and more!

Come hungry! Food trucks, beer, wine, and craft cocktails will be available on site.
