On Air Fest 2024

On Air Fest returns to Brooklyn’s Wythe Hotel for its annual flagship festival, bringing together the vanguard of storytellers, audio creatives, multimedia artists, musicians, industry leaders, and inspired listeners who are shaping the culture of sound.

Set against the hotel’s sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline, On Air Fest includes special programming, parties, and networking events, the presentation of our annual Audio Vanguard Award, and more.

Programming includes a very special session from Fresh Air co-host Tonya Mosley, and exclusive live editions of Design Matters with Debbie Millman, Sing For Science with singer, songwriter, and rising superstar Sid Sriram, The Allusionist with Helen Zaltzman, Twenty Thousand Hertz with host Dallas Taylor, and the Talkhouse Podcast, which returns to On Air after its 2021 conversation between The Roots’ Black Thought and Wyatt Cenac won the Webby Award for Best Live Podcast Recording.

Across its three days, On Air Fest will also feature the always-anticipated Hot Pod Summit, presented in collaboration with Hot Pod and The Verge, and an expansion to three distinct stages throughout the Wythe Hotel. In addition to the Main Stage headliners, and the non-stop live tapings that attendees can join in the Podcast Penthouse, this year’s On Air Fest will include evening events in the cinema-style Screening Room and an array of unexpected audio installations around the hotel and beyond.

Early bird pricing through December 25th
