The East Side of Vanderbilt Hall offers unparalleled foot traffic due to its prime location at one of Grand Central Terminal’s main entrances off of 42nd street. The event space is optimal for public commercial events, such as product samplings and launches, experiential activations, exhibits, and ticketed events.
Built in 1913 and meticulously restored in 1998, Vanderbilt Hall embodies historic New York City elegance and charm.
The hall can also be privatized for private parties, corporate and fundraising events, and fashion shows.
