Why RideSoHo for the Festival

Chauffeurs

Licensed and discreet

RideSoHo chauffeurs hold an NYC TLC license, earned after fingerprinting, a criminal background check, drug screening and a driving record review. They are professional, punctual and discreet.
Base

TLC Base B03644

Our licensed base is at 230 Park Avenue, and dispatch stays open through the late screenings and early flights.
Vehicles

Arrive in style

Escalades, Suburbans, S-Class sedans and Sprinters with chargers and water. A Sprinter keeps a cast or crew together.
Timing

Built around the schedule

Share the call time and the end time, and the car is staged nearby so you are not hunting for a ride.
Flights

Followed from landing

Your flight is watched and the pickup moves with it. Waiting is free for 45 minutes after domestic arrivals and an hour after international ones.
Arrivals

Meet & Greet

The $25 service puts the chauffeur in arrivals with a name sign, ready to take the bags.
Teams

Accounts for studios and agencies

Production companies and publicists can reserve, edit and cancel online and download receipts for expenses.
Families

Child seats

Each child seat is $10 and goes in the car ahead of pickup. Send ages and weights a day ahead.

Festival Night Tips

A few habits that make a busy screening schedule easier.
Planning

Book early

Reserve a week or more ahead so dispatch can plan around closures and event timing.
Timing

Leave a cushion

Premiere nights back up the streets, so build in extra minutes between a dinner and a curtain.
Pickup

Use a side street

The car meets you away from the main crowds, and a text confirms the exact spot.
Changes

Share updates

If a screening runs long, message dispatch and the chauffeur adjusts to the new end time.

Running late or changing venues?

Call dispatch at (212) 875-5212 and the chauffeur will adjust. Festival nights move quickly, and a person is always on the line to help.

How Festival Transportation Works

1

Book online with the pickup and venue, or call dispatch. Executive assistants and publicists can reserve for talent and guests.

2

Share the schedule: the call time, the end time, the flight number, any stops, and a child seat or Meet & Greet if needed.

3

A day before, the chauffeur's name, phone number and vehicle are sent to you.

4

The chauffeur is staged 15 minutes early and texts the pickup point.

Festival Transportation Questions

Is RideSoHo an official Tribeca Festival transportation partner?

No. RideSoHo is an independent, TLC-licensed black car service that carries festival guests, filmmakers, press and audiences, and it is not affiliated with or endorsed by the festival.

Yes. Share the venue, the call time and the end time, and the chauffeur is staged nearby. Drop-off points at big events are set by festival and police staff, so allow extra time.

As early as you can. Festival days are busy across Lower Manhattan, so reserving a week or more ahead gives dispatch time to plan around street closures and event schedules.

Yes. Hourly service keeps a car and chauffeur with you across venues, interviews and dinners. Rates start at $95 for a sedan with a 2 hour minimum.

Yes. We follow the flight, include 45 minutes of free waiting after a domestic landing and 60 minutes after an international one, and offer a $25 terminal Meet & Greet.
