Ford Ampitheater + beachside concerts = a perfect day in Coney

Summer in Coney Island is more than just hot dogs and amusement park rides. Just a few blocks from the Stillwell Avenue–Coney Island station sits the Ford Amphitheater, a covered, beachside concert venue and gastropub that restored a 1923 landmark, the former Childs Restaurant, to its original glory.
The summer concert lineup at this 5,000-seat music venue features a stellar mix of hip hop, rock, reggae, and old school legends. See headliners like Big Daddy Kane, Wiz Khalifa, Barenaked La
