I recently planned a 50th birthday celebration and had the absolute pleasure of hosting it at the Jolene Sound Room. The venue is stunning—intimate, stylish, and full of energy. Sydney was phenomenal to work with throughout the planning process, and she, Chris, and the entire team went above and beyond to take care of us all night. The food and drinks were top-notch, and the service was seamless. I can’t wait for the next opportunity to plan an event in the Jolene Room—or any of the other incredible spaces at the Moxy. Highly recommend!

Our customers recommend The Lookup Rooftop at Black Tap, where you enjoy the time with your loved ones while admiring iconic landmarks Empire State Building, Time Square and Madison Ave. Another favorite is the Waterfront Rooftop at Dumbo 10 Jay Street, which offers a chic and sophisticated atmosphere with panoramic views of the East River.
Many birthday party venues in New York City offer BYOB (Bring Your Own Bottle) options, allowing you to bring your preferred alcohol to the venue. If you're looking for a venue with BYOB, party apartments are a popular choice. They often have a more relaxed policy when it comes to bringing your own drinks. However, some event spaces may have restrictions or corkage fees. We recommend selecting the BYO option on our smart filters when searching on our platform and confirming this option with your chosen venue beforehand!
