As the holiday season approaches, we’ve been reflecting on another year filled with memorable projects and strong collaborations. From lively festivals to thoughtfully curated fêtes, it’s an honor to be the trusted production service provider to so many amazing partners.


No place is that privilege felt more strongly than in our hometown of NYC, where we’ve been tapped to transform some of the city’s most celebrated venues into unforgettable experiences. From the historic main branch of the New York Public Library and the striking architecture of The Guggenheim Museum to the industrial charm of the Brooklyn Navy Yard and uniquely reimagined Domino Sugar Factory and the vibrant energy of Randall’s Island, our team brought diligence and precision to every project. Each space offered its own unique character, and we worked tirelessly to bring these locations to life in new and exciting ways.


We’re proud of everything we’ve accomplished and are immensely grateful to all who’ve been part of this journey. Cheers to closing the year on a high note and looking ahead to what’s next!

 

Highlights from Our Fall Season



Left: For the fifth year running, we were thrilled to play a pivotal role in The Great Jack O’Lantern Blaze. This season, we pushed the boundaries, crafting a dazzling walk-through experience featuring thousands of intricately carved pumpkins, larger-than-life displays, and stunning special effects. With over two million visitors and counting, we’re proud to hep make this tradition unforgettable.


Right: With the help of incredible partners, we turned Under the K Bridge Park - a once overlooked 7-acre space - into a multi-night celebration of music and energy. Featuring unforgettable performances from Black Coffee and Mau P, our team, from riggers to site crew, brought this unique venue to life and delivered an experience that went above and beyond expectations.



Our team shined during September’s NY Fashion Week, helping bring visionary designs to life for some of the industry’s most iconic names. At The Guggenheim, we transformed the museum’s signature spiral staircase into an elegant stage for Alaïa’s debut runway show, showcasing their take on American sportswear. We helped create a sleek, modern runway in the Meatpacking District that perfectly complemented the clean, refined designs of Brandon Maxwell. At the Brooklyn Navy Yard, we emphasized COS’s minimalist aesthetic with striking clean lines and expansive open spaces, while at the Smithsonian Design Museum, we embraced its architecture to showcase Parisian jeweler Boucheron. Finally, we helped deck out the Domino Sugar Factory’s glass domed penthouse, Skylight at the Refinery in aqua-blue tiles to evoke an underwater ambiance for Tory Burch.

 

NYFW is always a highlight for us, and we're already looking ahead to February!

 


Left: We brought Randall’s Island alive in September with our return to the 2nd edition of Dave Portnoy’s One Bite Pizza Fest. This festival is one of our favorite annual events to work on with our good friends at the experiential agency Medium Rare. More than 5,000 NYC pizza lovers came together in 2024 to celebrate the history and tradition of this beloved food - one bite at a time.


Right: We ran a victory lap with the NYC Marathon runners, producing a high-energy celebration that brought the entire running community together. Set in the rising 180 Maiden Lane building against the iconic East River waterfront, we collaborated with Nike Running to create a vibrant event to champion the marathoners’ collective win. A true celebration of perseverance and achievement!
