FMCP in the News!

As the largest park in Queens and the site of New York City’s iconic World’s Fair heritage, there is a lot to talk about in Flushing Meadows Corona Park!

We continually update this page to let our community and the Queens-curious know more about all the incredible things happening in our nearly 900 acres of natural areas, pathways, cultural institutions, water bodies, athletic facilities and more.
