Promenade Night Set For Thursday in Plaza

Local residents and visitors from the metropolitan region are once again invited for an evening of fine dining and live entertainment.

Promenade Night will feature a variety of fine dining options that Great Neck Plaza has to offer in a unique outdoor café environment. Participating restaurants include ERA Asian Cuisine, La Rotonda, Elaine’s Bistro & Grill, Bee-Organic and the Great Neck Diner.   

In addition, the BID’s 2nd Annual Karaoke Competition will take place with participants competing for “Plaza Bucks” prizes.  

“Residents from all over Long Island and the surrounding areas come to our summer promenadenights to enjoy the cuisine the Plaza has to offer,” said Jay Corn, Great Neck Plaza BID Vice President and Events Committee Chairperson. “The outdoor events hosted by the BID generate a lot of excitement and we didn’t want the weather to put a damper on the festivities.”

The rescheduled promenade event will begin at 6:30 p.m. and continue until 10:30 p.m.  

In addition to outdoor café style dining, a karaoke competition will take place from 8:30 p.m. until 10:30 p.m.  

Last year’s Great Neck Plaza AutoFest and Street Festival’s karaoke competition winners Jenna Pasqua, Maggie Doherty and Eileen Braham will serve as judges. The competition is open to the first 20 contestants who register at 7:30 p.m. on Bond Street.

“We are extremely thankful to all the local businesses that make this night possible,” said Ron Edelson, Great Neck Plaza BID Executive Director “Promenade Night is an enjoyable event that helps build a sense of community in Great Neck and brings support to our local businesses.”

The friendly atmosphere of Great Neck Plaza is the perfect setting to enjoy the best dining and shopping in the summer. All stores in Great Neck Plaza are within walking distance of the LIRR’s Great Neck train station, and the Plaza features over 1,600 convenient parking spaces on-street, in municipal parking fields and garages.
