- The closing night after-party on June 13 at Capitale on Bowery features a headline Alicia Keys performance tied to her closing-night documentary, produced with 10 Lives Studios.

Why it matters: At 25 years, Tribeca's after-hours calendar has become the festival's signature product — 103 world premieres are matched by nightly brand-backed parties from Chanel, Diageo, AT&T, OKX, 8AM, and City National Bank at marquee Manhattan venues. The sponsor density across 11 days positions Tribeca as a primary commercial node for fashion, spirits, telecom, and crypto companies seeking guaranteed access to filmmakers and celebrity talent in a single concentrated run.
