Visiting the Imagine mosaic at Strawberry Fields in Central Park is a deeply touching experience, especially for fans of John Lennon and The Beatles. The peaceful ambiance, surrounded by trees and heartfelt tributes, offers a space for reflection and serenity. Meeting the band Strawberry Feels made the occasion even more special. Singing Imagine together felt like a soulful, uniting tribute to Lennon's lasting message of hope and harmony. Their beautiful performances of Beatles classics and Lennon's solo pieces filled the space with nostalgia and joy, creating an unforgettable celebration of John Lennon's legacy.

When we arrived, there was a street performer playing the guitar and singing. It’s a lovely spot with benches to relax. We waited less than five minutes for a photo opportunity on a Saturday in November.

An amazing memorial for John Lennon. My wife and I happened to be at Central Park on December 8th this year, and there was a large gathering of people along with a live band playing Beatles songs. We were lucky to be in the right place at the right time.
