SoundSpa: An escape from the noise of New York Fashion Week

At Spotify Advertising, we don't just communicate; we orchestrate stories that resonate globally. Experience the difference.

Amidst the exhilarating whirlwind of New York Fashion Week, we presented SoundSpa—an oasis of calm and creativity amidst the bustling cityscape. As the spotlight shines on haute couture, we invited advertisers to step into a realm where inspiration flows freely, and connections are forged in the most serene of settings.

We broke away from the city's clamor and indulged in a serene escape. SoundSpa offered a sanctuary where urban vibrations fade into the distance, allowing clients to unwind and rejuvenate in an environment designed for relaxation and reflection.

Imagine engaging in intimate fireside chats with the luminaries of the artistic realm. Thought leaders and creators in beauty, fashion, podcasts, and beyond shared insight on how audio helps them create a safe space to process whatever issues life throws their way. Marketers walked away with a deeper understanding of how GenZs use audio to help them navigate life and express all sides of themselves.  Everything went down around the corner from the Spotify NYC Headquarters in Manhattan at Mutha Pearl SPA.

Here, the boundaries between inspiration and reality blurred, and creativity found its truest expression.

Fireside Chats:

    Podcasts have become a safe space to process whatever issues life throws our way. Whether transitioning into adulthood or seeking to learn more about relationships or health, Spotify has podcasts to help find those answers.
