About this activity
Experience an authentic gospel service in Harlem, one of New York's most historically and culturally significant African-American neighbourhoods, and discover first-hand the musical tradition that has made gospel a unique genre.
Beyond the music, this experience is an opportunity to get to know the real Harlem — its community and identity, far removed from Manhattan's more conventional tourist circuits.
What to bear in mind
As this is a real religious ceremony in a local church, attendees are asked to show respect and discretion throughout the service; the exact time and church are stated in the booking confirmation.
Arrive with time to spare: churches usually have limited capacity for visitors and it's worth securing your place early.
