Visitor Information & Policies

Venue

Park Avenue Armory is located at 643 Park Avenue between 66th and 67th Streets.

Bag Check

All backpacks, messenger bags, briefcases, satchels larger than 9" x 4" x 12"  (or 21 x 10 x 30 centimeters), and umbrellas and coats must be left at our complimentary Coat Check. Personal handbags (smaller than the above), delivery packages, and purchases are subject to inspection at any time. Items such as maps, manuscripts, artwork, or books are not permitted into the fair, unless accompanied in and out of the fair by a badged exhibitor. In order to bring such items on the show floor, please have an exhibitor meet you in the lobby upon your arrival.

Assisted Access

For individuals requiring assisted access, a sidewalk-level entrance is available at 103 East 66th Street, located just east of Park Avenue. Patrons may ring the service bell when they arrive, or make arrangements prior to arrival by calling the main security desk at +1 (212) 616-3950 ext. 1.

A limited quantity of wheelchairs are available on a first-come, first-serve basis at the show office. Please call +1 (212) 777-5218 to make arrangements. 

Service Animals

Service animals are defined as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities and by law are allowed at the fair. Service animals must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered, unless the individual’s disability prevents using these devices or these devices interfere with the service animal’s safe, effective performance of tasks. Fair management may ask if the animal is required because of a disability and what work the animal performs. No pets or companion animals are allowed on the floor of the fair. Service animals may be required to be carried if doing so does not interfere with their duties.
