Labor Day is a federal holiday in the United States, it celebrates the economic and social contributions of workers. This year, the holiday falls on Monday, September 2 2019.

Since it’s a federal holiday, banks and government offices are closed but all touristic activities are open, the MET is known to stay open on Labor Day.

This holiday is an opportunity for New Yorkers to spend time with friends (last official day at the beach), and barbecue or go to Central Park.
