Advertising Week New York, which used to sprawl over half a dozen or more venues in Manhattan, will be consolidated under one roof at the 13-screen AMC Loews Lincoln Square theater for the four-day event that starts Oct. 1.
“Over the years, we’ve staged Advertising Week all over town, from Tribeca to Time Warner Center and into Times Square, where we stitched together a collection of theaters and other venues,” said Matt Scheckner, CEO of Stillwell Partners, the exhibition company behind the Advertising Week event.
Other cities hosting Adverting Week like London, Tokyo, Mexico City and Sydney all gather under one roof. “It elevates the whole experience,” he said, but since the NYC show attracts close to 100,000 people over four days, it is no easy find.
“For our 15th anniversary year, we were hell-bent to find that true home for Advertising Week — a physical space where we could unite the whole industry and come together — and we found it.”
Among the speakers who have committed this year are some big guns, including Marc Pritchard, the chief brand officer of Procter & Gamble, Mastercard Chief Marketing Officer Raja Rajamannar and Cole Haan CMO David Maddocks.
