Message from the Business

Guys and dolls meet the post-symphony set at this swank jazz club.
Considered one of the most desirable event locations in New York, The Carnegie Club is a magnificent space that's both grand (25-foot ceilings with a mezzanine) and intimage. It provides a uniquely Gothic backdrop with hand-carved 18th century bookcases filled with a wide assortment of leather-bound titles and a stone fireplace - all of which is offset by plush, contemporary furnishings. Offering an elegant and stylish atmosphere, The Carnegie Club provides an upscale backdrop for virtually all types of events. Conveniently located behind Carnegie Hall, directly next to City Center, and a short walk to the Theatre District; this space can accomodate up to 175 guests for a cocktail reception and 75 guests for a seated dinner.

I have found a treasure if you are a Jazz fan. This club was made for music and they have it. I stumbled in by accident after seeing the spinning martini glass on the ground and hearing a band. I spent 3 hours listening to ... (more)

Carnegie is a great lounge that plays host to some of New York City's greatest talent. Namely, a great three-piece trio that call themselves SPONGEWORTHY. The trio can be found every Sunday evening from ... (more)
