At the heart of bustling Flatbush and Atlantic avenues sits the sprawling Atlantic Terminal, a true Brooklyn stalwart serving not only as a transit and retail hub but also a gathering place. To commemorate its 20th year, the downtown mall plaza is putting on a slew of brand-new weekly programs — all free and open to the public!

The new series “Terminal 20: Summer on Track” welcomes neighbors and visitors alike to partake in community-building activities and summer events focused on wellness and family fun. Event organizers consider the initiative “both a thank you and an invitation to celebrate” the borough all summer long.
On Wednesdays, whip your workout into a party with the help of Diva Dance, who choreograph core-strengthening routines to upbeat music, during “Wellness Wednesdays” now through August 20. Be sure to register for this one in advance, as space is limited!
Every Thursday from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., the “Summer Sunset Salsa Series” will turn the plaza into an open-air dance floor, welcoming dancers of every level to partake in guided lessons to the tunes of live bands and DJs. Find your rhythm now through August 21.
“Summer Saturdays” on July 12 and September 13 are for families looking to give kids time to explore water play, crafts, games, and even giveaways from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Created in partnership with Brooklyn Bridge Parents, children through age 12 are welcome. Since admission is free, this program could fill up fast, so RSVPs are recommended.
What’s more, Atlantic Terminal will host a Pixie Pods summer camp geared toward younger children through September 2. Activities will encourage artistic expression, active play, and imaginative exploration. Of course, registration is required, and fees apply for this one.
