In a unique in-theater alliance with National CineMedia (NCM), Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment (BSE) is premiering a campaign to promote artists who play Barclays Center through video content on 441 movie screens across 36 movie theaters throughout the New York metropolitan area, including the top grossing theater in the U.S., located on W. 42nd Street in Manhattan.

In addition to the big screen, BSE’s ads will run on NCM’s Lobby Entertainment Network in each participating theater.
