While Frieze New York in the spring and The Armory Show in the fall are the headline events, there's an exciting mix of art fairs throughout the year. Right now, the focus is on spring fairs, organized by start date to make planning easier. It's impossible to see them all — we recommend selecting two or three and giving yourself time to explore. If your schedule is tight, consider dedicating a day to gallery hopping in Chelsea, Tribeca, or the Lower East Side — top recommendations are listed on the right side of this guide.
