Networking Event Recap: Bloomingdale’s 59th St!

We had a BLAST at our latest networking event in partnership with Bloomingdale’s 59th St — their flagship property in NYC! Guests were welcomed with Bloomingdale’s gift bags full of travel goodies like luggage tags, perfume samples, skincare products, and with a touch of Reposite swag too. Bloomingdales leverages Reposite to connect with the local travel & event planning communities that surround each of their stores. By bringing these planners in to see, touch, and feel the space, Bloomingdale’s is now top of mind to NYC’s top tier professional planners for their upcoming events! Immediately following the event they had an influx of inquiries from the planners in attendance!

Attendees were taken for a guided tour of the entire store, learning all the highlights and history that this iconic space has to offer groups, including:

• 8 different floors of diverse venue spaces including Studio59, Forty Carrots, Cosmetics Spa, and Demo Kitchen to name a few
• Curated shopping experiences and personal stylists who are available for group events, including Fashion Presentations on the selling floor
• Bloomingdale’s unique Demo Kitchen for celebrity chef cooking demos or lessons
• Newly renovated and updated departments and flourishes that make Bloomingdale’s a uniquely charming venue and activity space, that had guests buzzing with excitement and inspiration
• Studio 59, a chic cafe open to the public or available for private events for cocktail parties or a seated meal, where guests were served light bites and a signature hibiscus & prosecco cocktail, complete with edible flowers!

“I was so happy to take part in the Reposite networking event at Bloomingdale’s! It was such a unique way to see and learn about the store, hear about the ways they use the (huge) space for events, and then mingle with other travel and tourism industry people in a really fun and casual way.”
