About Studio Square NYC Event Space
Studio Square NYC Event Space was a landmark venue in Long Island City, known for its five flexible spaces and a range of seating configurations that could accommodate roughly 50 to 1,000+ guests depending on the setup. With on-site valet parking and a versatile layout, it served as a hub for concerts, sporting events, and large catered gatherings before its redevelopment. Today, the historic venue space has transitioned to Pig Beach Queens and other tenants, continuing to anchor the neighborhood's vibrant event and dining scene. This page provides a practical overview for planning in LIC, including seating options, parking, transportation, and nearby hotels and restaurants to help you secure your next event with ease.
Although Studio Square NYC Event Space is no longer operating under that name, the site’s legacy lives on in the seasonally vibrant LIC area. If you’re coordinating an event in the vicinity, consider nearby venues with similar flex-space capabilities and the convenient access LIC offers. For lodging and dining, there are trusted partner options in the neighborhood, including hotels like Z NYC Hotel Long Island City and a curated selection of restaurants and services to support a seamless event experience.
Transit options nearby include the 33rd Street–Rawson Street (7 line) and Queensboro Plaza stations, with additional bus routes serving the LIC corridor. For guests driving in, on-site valet parking historically provided secure parking as part of the venue offering, and nearby parking garages continue to support events in the area.
