The Metropolitan Pavilion is an exhibition venue in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City. Opened in 1992, the 45,000 sq ft (4,200 m2) venue offers four loft event spaces in one location. The Metropolitan Pavilion is situated next door to the old Altman Building, and on occasion, the two connected buildings are utilized as one extra-large event space.[2]
The Metropolitan Pavilion has been host to comic book conventions, toy shows,[3] art exhibitions, film festivals,[4] fashion shows, food festivals,[5] fencing tournaments,[6] political fundraisers,[7] weddings,[8] and other gala events.[9][10][11][1] These events include the MoCCA Festival,[12] the Big Apple Comic Con,[13] the Pinta Art Show, the Outsider Art Fair,[14] and the American Folk Art Museum.[15]
