I'm looking for a great #NYC (Manhattan) venue for a business conference. The space needs to have: (1) a general session room with stage that can comfortably hold between 200-250 people in classroom- or half-round table format; (2) at least two additional breakout rooms that can hold at least 50 people each in classroom or half-round format, and (3) vendor / sponsor space where they can set up tables and network. The event will be held in late September or early to mid October 2024 for 2 consecutive days (not including a Monday). Might you have an easy way to find options?
If you are hoping to have this outside of a hotel space I definitely recommend Convenes (https://convene.com/locations/new-york-city/)
Thanks, @EventPlanner6478. Convene is on the radar. We had our event at their 360 Madison location this year. It's nice, but we need a little more space for 2024. We are looking at 117 W 46th, but it's really expensive. Their One Liberty location is nice, too, but doesn't have enough breakout rooms.
Metropolitan Pavilion has worked well for us in the past! Downside is that you have to bring basically everything in
Checkout Moonlight Studios in Soho. https://moonlightstudiosnyc.com/
I think Spring Studios could work for this
I agree with Spring Studios and Convene. Also check out Pier Sixty Collection. They have a great space and have the ability to change room logistics seamlessly
I'm looking into something similar and here is what my agency came up with: Pier Sixty, Tribeca Rooftop + Bar and Dream Hotel
Apella!
Hi all! I’m looking for a venue in NYC that will hold up to 250 people theatre style. I did this at spring studios last year which was obviously gorgeous but had to bring in own stage, chairs, etc. Looking for something more turnkey yet still well known. Let me know if you can help! :)
Exploring new conference venues in NYC for 800 attendees if anyone knows of a hidden gem.
Glasshouse, Spring Studios, Pier 60 will exceed our budget with their prelim pricing over 300k. (they all mandate a load-in day for conferences)
Hi NYC peeps - I'm on the hunt for a venue in either Manhattan or Brooklyn that has built in broadcast capabilities. Our client loves a warehouse vibe but not a lot of AV or broadcast capabilities are going to be built in there. Why built-in? Cost savings -- my hope is that if I find a place that has some of our broadcast needs built in it will save us some money on our overall outside AV costs. I've been in touch with Convene already but would love any suggestions you may have. Thanks!
Hi NYC event peeps, I’m looking for reco’s for a venue to host a one-day conference that can fit 1,000-2,000 attendees for a keynote, and 4 breakout sessions. Ideally in Manhattan.

Anyone know if DC venues for 150 pax similar to Convene? We have been in hotels before but the client liked the all in aspect of Convene in NYC. We have a fixed date and their DC location isn’t available. Thank you!

I'm looking for venues in NY and LA that have space for a half or full day conference for 200-250 people with room for breakouts and production space.

Hi all — does anyone have reccos of party venues that fit ~900 people? Few notes:
• Targeting Manhattan

Appreciate any suggestions, thank you in advance!
