Please provide a list of the highest grossing rental event venues in Manhattan and Brooklyn (include average pricing and size of venues and types of events)?
Hello! Thanks for your question about the highest grossing rental event venues in Manhattan and Brooklyn. The short version is that the Barclays Center in Brooklyn and Madison Square Garden in Manhattan are among the top rental event venues in the US. I could not find any further information on other "highest grossing" rental event venues at these locations. Below you will find a deep dive of my findings.
METHODOLOGY
In order to best answer your question, I reviewed a number of credible sources such as corporate websites, industry reports, trusted media sites, user forums, and review sites. I found that the Barclays Center, in Brooklyn, is ranked amongst the worlds top event venues. Madison Square Garden, in Manhattan, is one of the US's top event venues for concerts and sports. However, I was unable to find information on Manhattan and Brooklyn's top grossing event venues.
The relevant information on "top grossing" event venues in both Manhattan and Brooklyn proved quite difficult to find. Google searches were done using variations of the terms "High Grossing or "Premier", which included "event venues", "Manhattan, New York", "top grossing event venues Manhattan", "top grossing event venues Brooklyn", and so on. The information came up short. Due to the lack of information, I then searched for related terms such as "Top", "Leading", "Premier", and "event venues Brooklyn", "event venues Manhattan". What came up was mostly wedding event venues. Based on this information, I filtered Manhattans wedding event venues search for venues that can accommodate no less than 450 guests. I was able to compile a list of five Brooklyn event venues and five Manhattan event venues using this method.
Once the top venues were determined, I then compiled the information in the following format venue, size, average cost, catering, types of events, and location. This information can be found in the attached spreadsheet
