Mumford & Sons' Ben Lovett Announces New 750-Capacity Brooklyn Venue Domino

A brand-new cultural hub and live entertainment space named Domino is slated to open on the Williamsburg waterfront in Brooklyn in April 2027. Developed by tvg Hospitality—founded by Mumford & Sons member Ben Lovett—in partnership with Emerson Hospitality and Two Trees Management, the all-ages venue will feature a 750-person capacity and occupy a space within the historic Refinery at Domino.

According to the announcement, the facility is designed to host a wide array of programming, including concerts, club nights, comedy acts, film screenings, live podcast recordings, and fashion and art showcases. Beyond public events, the space aims to support creators by offering artist rehearsals, recording sessions, educational programming, and partnerships with local nonprofits and cultural organizations. In a notable move addressing a major industry controversy, Domino has pledged not to take a percentage of artists' merchandise sales.

To ensure deep community ties, the venue will form a cultural board of diverse New Yorkers who will meet quarterly to review programming and champion emerging talent. The location will utilize DICE for its ticketing needs and operates as a member of the National Independent Venue Association. Jed Walentas, CEO of Two Trees Management, emphasized that integrating live arts into the ground floor of the historic industrial landmark honors the neighborhood's past while fostering its creative future.

Neighborhoods change. The need for a place like this never does.

What to watch next: Construction and preparations will continue leading up to the scheduled grand opening in April 2027.
