Boldly Reimagined For 2025

Celebrating a decade of defining New York City nightlife, earning international acclaim, and shaping the cultural landscape, The Brooklyn Mirage, an iconic open-air sanctuary in the heart of the Avant Gardner complex, has been completely reimagined and reemerges in a spectacular new form on May 1.

Inspired by operatic grandeur, The Brooklyn Mirage ushers in a new era for live music, art, and immersive nightlife experiences with groundbreaking innovations, including a fully kinetic floor-to-ceiling shutter system that creates a 270-degree virtual environment outfitted with LED screens boasting a combined 30K resolution and 100 million pixels. With the shutters closed, the venue takes on the intimate feel of a theater, but at the touch of a button, the space transforms—revealing an open canvas where artists can craft their own immersive visual world. This is all complemented by a custom-built L-Acoustics sound system with over 100 precision-calibrated speakers and subwoofers strategically placed throughout the venue, ensuring perfectly balanced sound while delivering an unparalleled sonic experience no matter where guests are in the space. Soaring 65 feet high, the redesign features a monumental timber structure, making it one of the largest sustainable event venues in the USA and a bold alternative to traditional aluminum and steel builds.

Guests are invited to elevate their experience with the newly installed opera-style balconies, perched above the dance floor. These premium and VIP spaces offer unparalleled audio and visual immersion, featuring unobstructed views and the perfect setting to enjoy the show. Indulge in enhanced hospitality amenities while taking in the breathtaking atmosphere from a whole new perspective.

Additionally, The Brooklyn Mirage will enhance guest safety with new lighting, signage, rideshare drop-off zones, and expanded security and first responder teams. The upcoming season from May through November promises over 100 shows, featuring renowned global and local artists.
