Bespoke Event Design
While our signature packages provide a seamless foundation, we would also love to collaborate with you to create a truly one-of-a-kind experience. From private film acquisitions to full-scale venue transformations, our team is equipped to bring your vision to life.

Custom Culinary & Beverage Development

For full-venue buyouts and high-impact events, our culinary team offers dedicated menu development. We work closely with you to design a unique dining experience or a signature cocktail program that reflects your theme. Our menu development service ensures that every dish and cocktail is specifically curated to your vision.

Environmental Branding

Transform Metro into a dedicated home for your brand or milestone. Take over our street-facing digital displays, install custom physical signage, or curate photo-op footprints within the lounge. We also offer furniture reconfiguration in our suites to better suit your flow, whether you need tables for a meeting setup or space for mingling.

Tailored On-Screen Content

Beyond your own high-definition presentations and personal tributes, we can coordinate with our studio partners to acquire specific films by special request. To ensure a polished first impression, we can also feature custom welcome messaging on the big screen to greet your guests the moment they enter their suite.

For large-scale activations, industry premieres, or private galas, the entire 14,600-square-foot Metro facility is available for exclusive use. A total buyout provides your guests with private access to all 20 screening suites and the Lounge, creating a fully contained, multi-floor experience in the heart of Chelsea.
