Are you looking to catch a show in NYC? Keep in mind that
New York City has options beyond Broadway. The fashion industry has many shows
that put plays and musicals to shame. We have music, models, and snazzy
clothing. Not to mention, tons of celebrities on hand.
When we think in terms of New York fashion shows, the
first thing that comes to mind would be the runway events that take place at New
York Fashion Week. However, it is important to keep in mind the apparel trade
show events are important as well.
The city has several venues that are good for holding special
events. If you are looking for the grand-daddy of locations, you would want to
investigate the Javits Center. The Jacob Javits Center is an exhibition
center that has been open since 1986, and has been fulfilling its mission as the
Marketplace for the World® ever since. This venue has several different
industry events including fashion industry trade shows.
Operated by the New York Convention Center Operation
Corporation (NYCCOC), a public benefit corporation, the Javits Center helps
drive the economies of New York State and New York City, generating an
impressive $1.5 billion in economic activity and supporting 14,000 jobs. Nowhere
in the country will you find a more sought-after, state-of-the-art facility—one
with the extensive resources, services and staff of elite professionals
dedicated to making every trade show, convention and special event a success.
With 840,000 square feet of flexible exhibition space occupying six city blocks
along the scenic Hudson River, the facility can accommodate any size event, at
any time. It’s no wonder that 35,000 companies choose it as their preferred
venue every year.
See what fashion shows are taking place by visiting the Javits Center Events page
