About Madison Square Garden Entertain
About Madison Square Garden Entertain
Madison Square Garden Entertainment operates five venues -- The Garden, The Theater at Madison Square Garden, Radio City Music Hall, and the Beacon Theatre in New York City, plus The Chicago Theatre -- hosting nearly 6 million guests across more than 975 events in fiscal 2025. The Company's Christmas Spectacular production, featuring the Radio City Rockettes, generated 18% of fiscal 2025 revenue, while long-term Arena License Agreements require the NBA's Knicks and NHL's Rangers to play all home games at The Garden through 2055.
The Company earns revenue primarily by licensing its venues to third-party promoters for concerts, family shows and sporting events, supplemented by ticketing, premium hospitality suites, sponsorship and signage sales, and food, beverage and merchandise sales; it occasionally promotes or co-promotes shows directly, taking on economic risk for those events. Under long-term Arena License Agreements running through 2055, the Knicks and Rangers pay MSG Entertainment annual license fees to use The Garden, with the teams responsible for 100% of related property taxes unless the Complex's real estate tax exemption -- worth $43.0 million in fiscal 2025 -- is repealed. The Company owns The Garden outright but leases Radio City Music Hall and the Beacon Theatre through 2038 and 2036, respectively, plus roughly 367,000 square feet of New York City office space.
Show full overview
MSG Entertainment's own 10-K flags its geographic concentration as a distinct competitive vulnerability: four of its five venues -- The Garden, The Theater at Madison Square Garden, Radio City Music Hall and the Beacon Theatre -- sit in New York City, leaving the Company more exposed than rivals with venues spread across multiple markets to any city-specific shock, from a terrorist threat to a labor disruption to changes in the Madison Square Garden Complex's real estate tax exemption. That exposure compounded during the COVID-19 pandemic, when New York-specific closures materially impacted operating results, and it recurs in a different form through the Garden's dependence on a New York City zoning special permit that must be periodically renewed, most recently in September 2023 for five years.
