What makes LUME different from booking a sports bar for a corporate watch party?
The immersive production. A sports bar gives you screens on a wall. LUME projects the match across a 360° immersive environment with 17-speaker spatial audio, floor-to-ceiling scale, and a fully branded production environment your company or brand controls. The match becomes an event, not a viewing.
How many guests can you host for a sports viewing event?
Up to 200 standing in the Immersive Studio for full tournament-scale watch parties. Up to 40 in LOFT 4 for intimate branded client hospitality. Up to 60 in LOFT 2 for mid-scale corporate team events.
Can brands run activations alongside the match?
Yes. LUME builds branded content environments alongside the viewing experience: custom projection content between match segments, product activation stations, influencer capture moments, step-and-repeat setups, and same-day content delivery for the brand's social rollout.
Do you handle catering and bar for daytime World Cup matches?
Yes. World Cup 2026 matches play during NYC business hours. LUME handles breakfast and coffee service for early kickoffs, full lunch catering through LOFT 4's kitchen for midday games, and full bar service throughout.
Can we book a series of matches across the World Cup tournament?
Yes. Brands and corporate teams running multi-match viewing series book the venue for multiple dates across the tournament. Series bookings get priority scheduling and locked pricing across the full tournament window.
When does FIFA World Cup 2026 start?
