Autumn Antics

Our fun filled summer led us into an eventful Autumn! Here's a recap of the spectacular events we produced this season...

On Fashion’s Night Out at Time Warner Center we kicked off Fashion Week by shopping and sampling everything from exotic cocktails at Stone Rose Lounge to delicious Italian olive oils and vinegars at O& CO. It was a fabulous evening full of champagne, glitz, and glam!

On a rainy Fun Friday in Autumn, we stayed dry at the newly opened, 61 Local in Cobble Hill with an assortment of locally crafted cheese and refreshing weiss beer. It was also the perfect way to prepare for our busy weekend when we took over Brooklyn on October 1st and October 2nd producing two street festivals in one weekend!

The New New York Green Block Party was held on October 1st in Williamsburg, around the corner from Brooklyn Bowl and down the block from the new hotel that Two Trees will be opening next year. Eco-conscious organizations and businesses like Future Green Studio, Brooklyn Greenroof, and Alive Structures promoted green building/living at this second annual event hosted by GreenHomeNYC. Composting demonstrations, green roof model building, and clothes-swapping were just a few of the eco-friendly activities of the day. Attendees also enjoyed vegan empanadas and Van-Leeuwen Artisan ice cream while hanging out at the green furniture design lounge!

One of our favorite events of the year, The Atlantic Antic, was held October 2nd. One million people walked down Brooklyn's historic Atlantic Avenue for The 37th Annual Atlantic Antic Street Festival! The skies were clear and the streets were bustling with energy. With over 500 vendors, 100 local merchants, 10 live music stages, and 1 block dedicated to family-friendly fun, this year's Antic was bigger and better than ever! Highlights included pop-up cubes from UNIQLO, a Yelp Lounge featuring games like "Pin The Skinny Jeans on the Hipster," a Broadway Booth sponsored by How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, and Carmelo the Science Fellow's Magician's Lab presented by AT&T.

As the festival came to an end, we celebrated with a round of Antic Amber at the Waterfront Ale House. Cheers!

We kicked off November with the launch of Hudson Yards, the new center for commerce, culture, and community on the West Side of Manhattan! Hundreds gathered for an exclusive press event where Mayor Bloomberg and Related Companies Chairman Stephen M. Ross announced Coach as the first major tenant. City Council Speaker Christine Quinn and Coach Chairman/CEO Lew Frankfort also shared a few words while attendees enjoyed delicious pastries and hot coffee on-site.

The fun continues on November 25th with Lucky Shops Black Friday at Time Warner Center. On the biggest shopping day of the year, Lucky will partner with Time Warner Center and MasterCard to bring together over 60,000 shoppers from around the world for exclusive deals, product samples, mini-makeovers, and tons of surprises! Plus, Lucky presents Priceless New York from MasterCard, a collection of shopping, culinary, sports, and entertainment experiences reserved for MasterCard cardholders on one day only!

We hope you can join us for this premier shopping event at Time Warner Center. It promises to be quite an experience!
