The Manhattan Ballroom defines classic elegance. It’s one of the most upscale wedding reception sites in New York City. This one of a kind ballroom boasts 24' glass windows overlooking 42nd Street & Lexington Avenues. It provides an unparalleled experience with panoramic views of the city, in a warm and comfortable atmosphere styled perfectly for your affair.

Empire Ballroom

Known previously as the Commodore Ballroom, it was the place where President John  F. Kennedy accepted the Democratic Party nomination for President in 1960.

Tapping into architectural references from the original Commodore Ballroom, design firm Looney and Associates created a design and feel that upholds and celebrates the integrity of the legendary space. 

Special touches of the Empire Ballroom include metal grillwork reminiscent of neighboring Grand Central Station and original tin tiling throughout the function spaces, respecting and enhancing the historic nature of the venue. The Ballroom also features beaded glass drapery in the entrance and an Italian marble foyer. The spectacular chandeliers are comprised of 7,000 individual hand-blown pieces of art glass creating a “champagne cloud,” giving the ballroom a sense of contemporary New York style.  The newly renovated space proves ideal for business meetings and functions of any size. Progressive audio-visual equipment has been installed along with permanent dropdown projection screens. Advanced LED lighting control system can create multiple hues and color tones to reflect the mood of each event. Both the ballroom and foyer feature enhanced communications and data packages.
