In a city that hosts events 365 days a year—366, this year—getting noticed is no small feat. Whether it’s politicos hobnobbing at the Clinton Global Initiative, socialites making the scene at the Costume Institute benefit, or indie rockers hitting the stage during the CMJ Marathon, there’s always a big event happening in New York. From gatherings that influence entire industries—TV’s Upfront Week, the Auto Show, the National Book Awards—to happenings that command the city’s attention for weeks at a time—the Tribeca Film Festival, Fashion Week, the U.S. Open—we’ve rounded up the best of the best for our seventh annual Top 100 list. These are the trade shows and conferences, gala dinners and award shows, parties and parades that make New York happen.Advertising Industry Events
