MIDTOWN — Take off your dancing shoes.
Bryant Park is hosting its inaugural Barefoot Ball on Wednesday, giving revelers the chance to dance with grass beneath their toes to a set by Questlove and give back to the park.
The event, from 7:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. on July 20, is a fundraiser for Bryant Park’s free programming throughout the year, according to a spokesman for the Bryant Park Corporation.
General admission tickets for the event start at $50 (which includes an open beer and wine bar), but for those looking to have a fancier experience, VIP tickets are going for $175, which includes access to a VIP area, an open beer and wine bar, food tickets, and a gift bag.
For those city folk squeamish about soaking up nature through their soles, a pair of flip-flops comes free with a ticket.
