The best Midtown venues

A blank canvas can be daunting, but having an untouched space for a Midtown venue can lead to unique and original events. Lavan Midtown, with 10,000 square feet of modern, white, and high-tech space, gives you this creative liberty.

Accommodating up to 800 guests, Lavan hosts events like exhibitions, weddings, and fundraisers. With audio-visual equipment, a catering kitchen, bars, LED lighting, green rooms, a projection mapping experience, and more, the world is truly your oyster when it comes to putting together an event exactly as you envisioned.

If you want your guests' jaws to drop as they enter the building, then Gotham Hall is the Midtown venue for you. The 70-foot ceiling and 17,500 square-foot space screams elegance, decorated with a grand chandelier and ornate stained glass skylight.

From non-profit events to weddings, this space seats 575 guests and stands 950. There’s a mezzanine level, dressing rooms, and lounges for more secluded areas, and a private entrance in case you need to sneak in a special surprise. It's safe to say that Gotham Hall will create a memorable night for you and your guests.

Can't decide between hosting an event indoors or outdoors? Well, Midtown Loft and Terrace offers both. Its 5,000-square-foot loft looks like a typical banquet hall with glossy wooden floors, white walls, and natural light. The space's simplicity allows for customization, and amenities include an in-house production company, speakers, a VIP room, and a bar. There is a maximum of 160 seated guests at round tables with room for a dance floor and stage, or 300 standing guests.

The terrace is another option if you want to embrace the loving city sounds of cars honking from below. The brick walls, lush greenery, and ideal view of surrounding skyscrapers are ingredients for a memorable event— plus, due to its retractable roof, it's suitable for NYC’s notoriously unpredictable weather. The terrace seats 100 guests or stands 150.

Nothing screams trendy like a tasteful loft in the middle of NYC, and Loft in Flatiron brings that industrial feel to the heart of the city. This Midtown venue has three floors and can accommodate up to 100 people.

The brick walls, decorative lighting, and luxe seating create a comfortable atmosphere, in addition to features like the bar, pool table, and audio-visual equipment. Open bar packages are also available, and a dedicated bartender is included in the rental price. The space is versatile, fitting for a variety of events.

Steps away from the charming Little Owl restaurant is Little Owl the Townhouse, a multi-level Midtown venue that seats 40 and stands 80. The exposed wooden beams, white brick, and matte black detailing create a cozy room for celebrations, branded experiences, and other events.

The venue offers full catering at any time of day from the nearby restaurant, with seasonal menu items and bespoke cocktails, and a dedicated production and design team to help curate your precise vision. As Little Owl the Townhouse says, "It's the little things… and they're what we do best." Sometimes, smaller, more intimate spaces are exactly what you need.
