What's your vibe?

We are a hip and eco-friendly performance & art space. We can accommodate most of your event needs, however if you are looking for a formal sit-down meal for all your guests, we may not be an ideal fit. We highly recommend scheduling a walkthrough prior to booking your event.

What are your top features?
  • A stage with the option to utilize our customizable LED stage panels
  • A full bar with signature cocktails, beer, wine, and liquor (menu changes seasonally)
  • State-of-the-art surround sound system plus full backline to accommodate live performances and mobile DJ booth

What is your maximum capacity?

Due to the pandemic, we are abiding by the NYS guidelines for safe indoor private events. Although NYS allows for 150 guests, each event is unique and requires a different plan based on the number of “pods” in your group and the nature of your event (ex: seated only theater style, partial seating with “dance pods”, tables for group pods spaced six feet apart, etc). When inquiring, please provide as much information about your event so that we can plan accordingly and stay within the NYS recommended safety guidelines.

Am I able to have a full seated dinner?

We can accommodate some seating, but littlefield is better suited for dance parties and other festive functions. We recommend having a few communal tables plus renting tall cocktail tables and tablecloths. Please check in with the Production Manager for approval before placing a rental order.

I've scheduled a walk-through–what's the next step?

Upon booking the space, you’ll receive a contract. Please note that half of the rental balance is due upon booking to secure the space. Once the contract is finalized, we’ll put you in touch with our Production Manager to sort out the details for your event.

Food & Bar

Your Title Goes Here
What type of food can I have at my event?

The most convenient option is catering from Parklife, our restaurant located around the corner from the venue. If you are interested in our catering option, please contact us at juki@littlefieldnyc.com. Here is our current catering menu. Outside caterers are welcome however we do not have a kitchen at littlefield and cooking is prohibited on the premises. We have limited space, so your caterer must bring prepared food with chafing dishes & stereos to warm them, and little to no equipment. We recommend hiring food servers; most caterers can provide this additional staff. All caterers are required to formalize and confirm menu details, set up and deliveries with our Production Manager in advance of your event. Because our sister restaurant serves Mexican Food, at this time we are not allowing other Mexican food caterers and vendors on site. Food trucks are another popular option, however we can’t guarantee parking right in front of the venue.

If we hire an outside caterer, can they use your kitchen?

We don’t have a kitchen at littlefield, but the caterer is welcome to share the prep area with our bar staff. Please note there is no cooking allowed on premise, and foods cannot create steam or smoke. We have a walk in fridge that can store a small amount of food, but please give us a heads up so we can make some room. All caterers are required to schedule a walkthrough and the Production Manager must approve extra rentals in advance. The caterer should be responsible for busing food.

If you are doing an open bar, please let the Production Manager know and she will work with you to tailor the menu as you like. There is a 20% gratuity added to all open bar tabs.

Can I pay my open bar tab with a credit card?
