Get On The List For The Whalies 2025
After a game-changing inaugural show in ATX last February, The Whalies has returned. This time, we’re taking the premier event in DTC to NYC for a day of growth, insights, and celebration.
Hosted at Terminal 5, this single-day experience will feature two stages packed with data-driven content from brands, agencies, and tech partners you know and love. In true Triple Whale fashion, we've got an incredible announcement you won’t want to miss.
Oh, and the awards? They’re back, too. And this year, we’ve got something special planned (Met Gala, eat your heart out).
We couldn’t move this thing to Manhattan and not go bigger, right?
500 people. One day. Don’t miss it.
