The Approach
We build the experience, then we amplify it.
It starts with a simple question: what will people actually remember? We design the experience around the answer, build and run it end to end, and capture the whole thing as it happens. The night is the spark. The photos and video we deliver keep your brand in front of people long after the doors close.
“The experience lives one night. The content lets it live above and beyond.”
Why LUME
What sets us apart
We pioneered immersive in NYC
LUME built one of the city's first wraparound projection studios and has been perfecting immersive experiences since 2016. When a brand wants the real thing, not an imitation of it, they come here.
Location, location, location
393 Broadway, in the heart of SoHo and Tribeca, with a street-facing marquee on one of downtown's most-walked corners. The address does half the work before a single guest walks in.
A decade of doing it well
1,700+ events for 700+ brands over ten years. We are known for this because we have done it longer, and done it better, than anyone else in the category.

What's Included
What every activation includes
The room is the production
A brand activation at LUME is built into the room. 360° projection mapping turns the entire interior into the brand's environment, with logo animations across every wall, product hero shots at scale, and campaign visuals running floor to ceiling. The street marquee on Broadway carries the brand outside the venue, driving foot traffic and press for the length of the run. The production tools are already in the room, so the activation costs less and looks bigger.
One team, full production
Inside our venue, everything is handled by one in-house team: concept, custom 360° projection content, multi-camera capture, and same-day deliverable folders for press and social. Producing your activation somewhere else? That is what our brand activation agency is for. Either way, you approve the creative direction once and we handle the rest.
The people carry it further
The best activations share three traits. They happen in a venue with built-in cultural credibility, they get captured at production quality so the content runs as earned media, and they fill the room with the right people. The people who show up are what carry an activation past the night. They post it, they talk about it, and they put your brand in front of audiences who were never there. With photo and video delivered same day or next morning, the event keeps working long after the doors close. Book a brand activation walkthrough.
