TWO REMARKABLE EVENT VENUES. ONE AMAZING LOCATION. At Manhattan Center, we don’t believe one premier event space is enough. So we offer two: The Hammerstein Ballroom and The Grand Ballroom. Putting aside the richly restored period architecture, and natural acoustics that renowned performers have called the “best in the world”, the venues’ spacious dimensions allow for guest lists ranging from 400 to 3,500; while featuring extensive dressing rooms, private salons and opera boxes. All this comes with the most convenient location in New York: 34th Street and 8th Avenue. Within its nearly one-city-block configuration, the Manhattan Center offers something more than two premier New York event locations. Manhattan Center is a full-service production house encompassing all sound, lighting, and video. Our expert team of production and event operations professionals will work with your team to bring your event to life. We have incredible partners for branding, specialty furniture, carpet, internet, draping, and catering. These partners are vetted, know the building, and can offer their expertise on what works and doesn't work.
