Hotel & Venues

Expanding the footprint of the festival for our biggest year yet.

Festival HQ:
Wythe Hotel

Since 2017 we have worked closely with our friends at Wythe Hotel, hosting On Air Fest throughout the halls of the boutique hotel. Guests coming from out of town often enjoy staying at Wythe Hotel during the festival— attendees can apply a 20% discount towards their stay using the promo code ONAIR2025.

As always we will activate the entire hotel from the cinema cellar to the eighth floor, Le Crocodile and Bar Blondeau. Williamsburg and the podcasting industry have both changed so much in the years since we began! It has become clear that we’ve outgrown our hub at the hotel, so this year we’ve added several new venues. All venues are walking distance from one another, even in February’s cold weather.

Music & Storytelling:
National Sawdust

National Sawdust is a dynamic non-profit cultural institution that commissions, produces, and presents programming rooted in sound and supports multidisciplinary artists and arts organizations in the creation of innovative new work. Founded in 2015, National Sawdust operates out of an intimate space, equipped with a state-of-the-art Meyer spatial sound system, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, where it is one of the few remaining cultural venues. The New York Times has described National Sawdust as “the city’s most vital new-music hall” and as “a triumphantly successful performance space that stands for a hip, sophisticated brand of new music.” Composer Paola Prestini, who co-founded National Sawdust, serves as its artistic director, alongside managing director Ana De Archuleta, making National Sawdust one of the few New York cultural institutions led by women.
