Madison Square Park is an urban oasis located in the Flatiron District between 5th and Madison between 23rd and 26th in lower midtown. The park is property of the City of New York and is governed by a partnership between Park & Recreation and the Madison Square Park Conservancy.

Here is Synergy’s one minute video overview of Madison Square Park:

 
Things we like about Madison Square Park events:

• It's not a commercial space and therefore you are not competing for attention with other brands during your event.

• The Park tends to be a destination rather than a thoroghfare with elements such as a dog run and playground.  Consumers are willing to stop and engage.

Additional tips when considering a Madison Square Park event:

• The park is governed by the Madison Square Park Conservancy.  They will need to review a complete plan for your event before granting approval.  The conservancy tends to be selective.

• The Shake Shack is located at the southern end of the Park and tends to get long lines during the lunch and dinner hours.

• You are not allowed to execute events on the grass.

• Cost: medium-to-high site fee.

• Traffic: Foot traffic is steady but light
