Event Planning NYC – 3 Unique Venues

Many times meeting planners want to take their group away from the meeting so that their delegates can experience all that this city has to offer. The following three venues were selected from an endless list of attractions and venues that are available for groups. Each of these venues, that we are showcasing here, were selected because they are representative of the city’s rich culture and history.

American Museum of Natural History

Meeting planners always want to offer an exclusive event for their delegates. In other words, something that the meeting’s delegates would not be able to do on an individual basis. Hosting a private and exclusive event at a museum, such as the American Museum of Natural History, offers such an experience. Dine with the world’s tallest freestanding dinosaur, have private viewings in the planetarium and private tours throughout the museum. This venue is ideal for corporate events and weddings.

The Rainbow Room

One of the most famous addresses in New York City, 30 Rock (New York speak for  30 Rockefeller Center) is home to NBC studios and the infamous Rainbow Room. The Rainbow Room offers world-class dining with a breathtaking view of Manhattan.
