NEW YORK METRO

NEW YORK METRO

Who doesn't ♥ NY?!

The undisputed ‘Center of the Universe’, New York City boasts the biggest, best, most, and greatest of, well, everything!  Unlimited possibilities exist for groups of all sizes, from citywide conventions to family-friendly incentives, to intimate executive meetings and gatherings.

The City that Never Sleeps is a true Mecca for shopping, sports, entertainment, dining, art, culture, history…is there anything this city doesn’t do well??

Destination Highlights

ENTERTAINMENT

Simply walking down the streets of NYC is entertaining enough on its own, but you're sure to stumble across that on your own. There may just be another thing or two we could clue you in on besides Broadway (which is fabulous, by the way).

FOODIE CENTRAL

We aren't kidding when we say you can experience any cuisine from anywhere in the world right here in the Big Apple. Sushi? Check. Indian? We've got that. Italian? Forget about it. We hear there's a pizza shop or two and maybe some Jewish delis you should check out as well. L'chaim!

SHOPPING

Shoppers can find everything, at every price, from one-of-a-kind boutiques, luxury brands, and private designer showrooms. Let’s start the day with breakfast with a NY designer in a store before it opens!

SPORTS

If sports is your game (pun intended), there’s no place like NY to get your heart pounding - whether team-building in a park with a view of The Statue of Liberty, or cheering from a box for (or against!) one of New York's several pro teams.

ACCESS was on top of every little detail to make the event a success. I was very busy working on other events – so it was beyond helpful to know that I could trust that no little detail would get missed. They kept me informed of all the aspects of the event – and in a short period of time. I knew I could trust them to make the event everything we hoped it would be.
