Head to NYC for Memorial Day Weekend

Average temperature low to high: 54°-72°F
May means Memorial Day Weekend, and what better place to celebrate than in one of America's favorite cities? With its many patriotic parades--including Brooklyn's 157th Memorial Day Parade--there are plenty of places in the Big Apple celebrating the holiday. The city's warm weather and larger-than-life skyline make a picturesque backdrop for exploring outdoor events and festivals or soaking up those distinctive NYC vibes while sightseeing and people-watching. May's pleasant weather is also great for enjoying the city's outdoor venues--like restaurants and bars with sundecks, rooftop lounges, and panoramic city views, all perfect for soaking up the spring sunshine.
