Have you ever attended a baseball game?

 

Start the fall semester off by going to Citi Field in Queens, home of the New York Mets, and watching a live baseball game! Maybe you’ll even have the chance to catch a ball, and take it home as a souvenir. If you don’t know how baseball is played, this is a great opportunity to learn the rules alongside other students who might be unfamiliar.

One To World has reserved an entire block of seats, 75 tickets, so in addition to watching the action on the field, you will have the opportunity to mingle with other international students who attend universities around the New York area!
Take advantage of our early bird discount by getting your ticket now at $20! Tickets will go up to $25 on September 2nd!

*Tickets are non-refundable*

Experience stunning views of the city while enjoying the best songs from around the world on One To World’s fourth ever welcome cruise! You’ve likely absorbed the famous Manhattan skyline from the popular Staten Island Ferry, or from visits to other boroughs, but have you enjoyed these views on a party boat with a few hundred new and existing friends?

 

Celebrate the beginning of a new academic year by dancing the night away on the ship deck with a live DJ, 300 international students, and other friends of One To World! 

 

Online ticket sales are now closed. If you are interested in purchasing a ticket to join us this evening, please meet at Pier 40 in Manhattan at 6 PM and if spots remain, you can buy a ticket at the pier. CASH ONLY.
