The Emigrant Savings Bank Building where Hall des Lumières is located

Hall des Lumieres or Hall des Lumières is a luxury immersive event space located in the former Emigrant Savings Bank Building at 49 Chambers Street in the Civic Center neighborhood of Lower Manhattan in New York City.[1] The space was opened as a museum after an extensive restoration. The 30,000 square foot space is known for hosting fashion shows, weddings, brand activations, summits, and social events across two levels. [2]

It opened in September 2022 with a show on Gustav Klimt, whose works date to the same era as the building in which it is housed.[3] Subsequent exhibits included Chagall, Paris – New York, Kandinsky, The Odyssey of Abstraction, and Destination Cosmos: The Immersive Space Experience in partnership with NASA.[4][5][6][7]
