Let them dance the night away at Gitano NYC.

The iconic venue for seductive fun and scrumptious delight is back in full force, and last night, the thrill of it all was celebrated at a new location for Gitano NYC.

Gotham’s nightlife elite gathered at the Tony Hot Spot downtown on the water at Pier 17 for a mesmerizing moment that kicked off the beat of summer in a powerful way. You felt the sway of the season hit hard and pull you into a land of beautiful tranquility mixed with passionate vibes from the moment you entered the room.

The landscape was divine, and so were the partygoers who came to be a part of the magic. A showcase of acts and celeb sightings took place on a nonstop rotation from the likes of FKA Twigs, Violet Chachki, Chloë Sevigny, Dascha Polanco, Marco Ovando, Raul Lopez, Fran Tirado, Connie Flemming, Adam Lambert, Joey Bada$$, Tina Leung, Christian Siriano, Aquaria, Jazzelle Zanaughtti, Luann de Lesseps, Jeff Wahlberg, Ezra J. William, Jimmy Akingbola, Diane Brill, Jennifer Yepez, EJ Johnson, Franco Noriega, Christian Cowan, Francisco Costa, Johann Vera, Timo Weiland, Brad Mondo, Emilia Staudt, Jennifer Yepez, Leigh Lezark, and Gabriel Robles.

After officially welcoming Gitano to New York City, CEO and founder James Gardner hosted an exclusive opening celebration in the lush jungle-inspired venue in the Seaport.

On top of FKA twigs’ performance, the evening featured a fiery cabaret set by Violet Chachki and some of the GITANO Tulum performers, as well as musical sets by Tom & Collins and Amber Valentine.

The night embodied GITANO’s mission of merging culture, cuisine, and community. With cocktails flowing courtesy of Casamigos, music pulsing, and guests reveling in a transportive escape in the heart of Manhattan, the evening marked a bold new chapter for the brand’s New York City presence.
