NYC Upfronts dinner venue at 393 Broadway in SoHo and Tribeca. 360° immersive content walls, Michelin-caliber kitchen, 40-60 guests. Amazon, Roku, Dropbox.
Upfronts week dinners are where the deals actually happen. The presentation at Radio City or the Javits Center sets the pitch. The dinner that follows closes it. Media companies and streaming platforms that understand this have moved away from restaurant private rooms toward venues where the environment itself makes the case: where the content can play at scale, the conversation stays private, and the production feels like an extension of the brand.
LUME Studios is the NYC advertiser dinner venue media companies, streaming platforms, and digital publishers use for partnership dinners, content showcases, and Upfronts season events. 393 Broadway in SoHo and Tribeca, four minutes from Midtown by car and a world away in terms of atmosphere. 360° projection mapping lets the content run across every wall of the room, so the show reel is not a PowerPoint on a screen, it is the environment guests are sitting inside. LOFT 4 seats 40 for an intimate leadership dinner with a full Michelin-caliber kitchen. The Immersive Studio hosts content preview dinners for 60 seated with production-grade AV. Same-day content capture means the dinner produces marketing assets before the season is over. Advertiser dinners here for Amazon, Roku, Dropbox, JetBlue, and Bai.
How It Works
Media company partnership dinners at LUME are built around a single principle: the room is part of the presentation. The 360° projection system means a show reel does not play on a screen in the corner. It plays across every wall, floor-to-ceiling, surrounding the room. An Amazon Prime Video showcase plays trailer clips at scale while buyers eat. A streaming platform's brand identity wraps the entire room before guests sit down. A content slate reveals over dinner in a fully immersive branded environment that makes a portfolio feel like a world, not a deck. The production that convinces a CMO to commit to a content partnership starts before the entree arrives.
Most Upfronts dinners happen in one of two places: a restaurant private room where the conversation leaks through the walls, or a hotel ballroom that looks like every other hotel ballroom. LOFT 4 at LUME seats 40 around a single table in a refined SoHo cast iron loft with its own floor, its own entrance flow, and a Michelin-caliber kitchen producing the meal in the room. The conversation stays in the room. The food matches the company's position. And the 360° immersive walls let the content play at intimate scale without a projector on a screen. For larger partnership dinners up to 60, the Immersive Studio runs the same format with full production.
Upfronts week in May is three days. Partnership dinner slots fill up months in advance. LUME works with media company event teams and brand experience agencies on Upfronts programming from January through April so the venue, the content environment, the kitchen, and the AV are all locked before the season starts. The same format works year-round: Q4 scatter market dinners, NewFronts season events, CES follow-up programming, and the advertiser relationship dinners that happen between the big shows.
