To celebrate the reopening of the fall season and re-introduce shoppers to over 300 businesses, the Madison Avenue B.I.D is organizing Welcome Back Saturdays this fall. This consumer shopping and experiential event will take place on Saturdays, September 12, 26, and October 3. At a mile and a half, Madison Avenue between East 57 and East 86th Streets is the longest street of luxury in the United States. Each Saturday will focus on a different 10-block area, presenting the public with new shops and restaurants to explore each week.
September 12: 57th - 67th Streets September 26: 67th - 77th Streets October 3: 77th - 86th Streets
The stores are the Main Attraction for Welcome Back Saturdays. Shoppers will have the opportunity to meet designers and enjoy a personal shopper consultation, styling session, or wardrobe reboot. Fashion and accessories brands will present a curated collection of new fall merchandise and launch new products. Select stores will be offering sales incentives, charitable contributions, restaurant gift cards, free delivery and more.
The street will come alive with a preview of the 4th Annual Madison Avenue Gallery Walk planned for October 24. Exceptional works of art provided by participating Madison Avenue galleries will be in view in storefront windows. The outdoor cafes of Madison Avenue's renowned restaurants will be open for the pleasure of dining al fresco while shopping and browsing the newest fall styles.
“Personalized shopping experiences have long been the hallmark of Madison Avenue,“ said Matthew Bauer, President of the Madison Avenue BID. “Retailers have been active all summer implementing strict sanitation protocols, ensuring that the calm and elegance of Madison Avenue seamlessly translates to the most important commodity that our retailers can provide: safety.”
