Press Events in SoHo / Tribeca NYC for Reveals, Junkets, and Editor Previews

A press event venue at 393 Broadway designed for moments worth covering. Custom 360° brand environments, multi-camera capture, talent green rooms, same-day content delivery, and full press list operations. Press events here for Patrick Ta Beauty, TRESemmé, Amika, Roku, and Dropbox.

Overview

NYC press event venue at 393 Broadway. Press conferences, product reveals, editor previews, upfronts, and advertiser dinners up to 200 guests.

Panel discussion at LUME Studios with immersive backdrop

Editors get invited to ten press events a week. They attend, photograph, and write about the ones that give them something they can't get from a mailer. Press events at LUME are built around exactly that: immersive product debuts where the brand environment IS the story, celebrity moments captured by the in-house production team and delivered same-day, custom step-and-repeat installations on the Broadway marquee that produce editorial-grade arrival photos before journalists even check in.

LUME Studios is the NYC press event venue brands and PR agencies trust when the story has to land. 5,400 square feet at 393 Broadway with custom 360° projection capability, RGB Astera camera-ready lighting, a dedicated production team, and full press operations support. Press events here for Patrick Ta Beauty, TRESemmé, Amika, Roku, and Dropbox.

How It Works

What to expect

Press events that produce coverage

A press event produces coverage when journalists leave with something they can publish. LUME builds events around the editorial outcome: the immersive product debut where the brand environment IS the story, the on-site celebrity moment captured by the production team and delivered same-day, the custom step-and-repeat installation on the Broadway-facing marquee that produces arrival photos worth publishing. The result: editorial coverage that pays for the event multiple times over.

Advertiser dinners and upfront-week events

Upfront and NewFronts week is a different kind of press event. The audience is buyers and agency media teams rather than editors, and the job is making a slate or a platform feel worth the spend. The Immersive Studio runs the presentation across every wall, so a programming reel is not competing with a hotel ballroom's chandeliers, and then LOFT 4 turns over to an advertiser dinner for 35 in the same building. Pinterest ran its Presents upfront here. Same production team, same night, no shuttling buyers across town.

Full-service press operations, invisible to guests

LUME handles press list management, RSVPs, on-site check-in, badge printing, security when needed, full bar service, catering, talent green rooms, and same-day content delivery. PR agencies bring the press strategy. LUME delivers the venue, production, and on-site coordination, so the agency's team can focus on the journalists in the room.

Talent green room and intimate press dinners

LOFT 4 doubles as a refined green room with kitchen, full bar, and dining setup for talent prep, hair and makeup, and post-event hospitality. Smaller press dinners and editor previews fit in LOFT 4 (up to 35) or LOFT 2 (up to 60). The same building handles a 200-guest press launch downstairs and an editor-in-chief dinner upstairs without conflict. See past press events or book a walkthrough.

“I booked my birthday party at LUME Studios and had a great time, as did everyone who came! While everything went perfectly, the highlight was the immersive visuals, which kept the energy up throughout the night. I've also been to a few pop-ups here and they always look incredible - each one is so unique, you couldn't tell it was the same venue. Would definitely book again at LUME in the future!”

“I held my wedding reception here back in August 2019… the staff was absolutely incredible, and I still sing their praises to this day. We planned everything ourselves, so as you would expect, we were very stressed, but LUME… made everything so easy for us. The most important part was how KIND everyone was… Our reception was truly the highlight of our whole wedding week.”

“We hosted the launch of RG House at LUME Studios, and I couldn't recommend the team more highly… The space itself is unlike anything else in NYC. The immersive technology, production quality, and flexibility gave us the ability to create an experience our guests are still talking about. But what stood out even more was the people behind it… It's rare to find a venue with both world-class production and a team that cares this much.”
