Netflix has announced FYSee – an exhibition space that aims to bring the best of Netflix’ library to life for industry and guild members (and it doesn’t hurt that its leading into Emmy voting this season). The multi-level, 24,000 square foot experiential space launches on Sunday, May 7 with a private kick-off party, and on Monday, May 8, FYSee will host an “In Conversation” with Academy Award-winning actor Kevin Spacey as he discusses the show that started it all, House of Cards.
Netflix’s FYSee will feature a full month of programming designed to connect the industry with the shows, creators and talent they love in wholly new and unusual ways. FYSee’s goal is to combine diverse, globally reaching television, and one-of-a-kind conversations and events, with above and below-the-line displays and interactive installations to create a kind of singular experience unique to Netflix.
The space is anchored by installations surrounding new Netflix hits such as The Crown and Stranger Things which already made an impact on the awards circuit. The Crown garnered Golden Globe wins for Best
