Frieze New York
Early May· The Shed, Manhattan
Why the circuit stops here
The art market rides the Met Gala’s slipstream: the same week New York fills with fashion and celebrity money, the fair opens downtown and the galleries stage their best spring shows.
The money signal
Met Gala Monday → Frieze Wednesday: one week, one city, two markets clearing at once.

How they arrive
- Private aviation is the default: expect FBO slots and hotel helipads to be the real constraint, not tickets.
- Short-hop helicopter transfers beat the road traffic. This stop is built around its helipads.
