Availability
The Auditorium and ancillary space availability varies throughout the year depending on performance and rehearsal schedules of New York City Ballet and outside renters. Theater rentals for performing arts groups are generally by the week, but on Mondays when the theater is occupied by NYCB or an outside renter the Promenade is often available regardless because that is usually a dark night. Many galas and other special events take place on the Promenade on Mondays as a result.
The Boardroom has consistent availability throughout the year. The Rose Building Studios are generally available when New York City Ballet is not in season, best availability is in the summer.
The Vogelstein, Nadler and Solomon Studios in the Koch Theater have similar availability. Email events@davidhkochtheater.com for rental information.
