Please note: RSVPing helps you stay up-to-date on show info, but does not guarantee entry. Bandshell entry is first come first served.

We kick off our two-part tribute to the late, great musician and producer Quincy Jones with a screening of The Greatest Night in Pop, a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the historic anthem “We Are the World.” This documentary captures the creative spark and cultural impact of a historic moment and serves as a moving homage to Jones’ unparalleled influence on music and film. Come dressed in your best ‘80s looks, and enjoy a DJ set by Rontronik and a panel moderated by Hearing Things featuring director Bao Nguyen before the film.

This event is part of BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn!, New York City’s longest-running, free, outdoor performing arts festival. View the whole summer 2025 lineup here.
