NEW YORK - Tempo by Hilton Times Square, the stylish and contemporary lifestyle hotel located in the heart of Manhattan's Theater District and adjacent to the historic Palace Theatre, is teaming up with Broadway's The Lost Boys to debut an immersive suite takeover inspired by the hit musical. Available for stays now through Sept. 14, 2027, the one-of-a-kind suite transports guests to Santa Carla, a sun-soaked boardwalk town that transforms into vampire territory after dark. In celebration of the most Tony Award-winning new musical of 2026, this exclusive experience provides fans a rare opportunity to stay steps from the show and continue the experience long after the curtain falls.

The collaboration brings the imaginative world of The Lost Boys beyond the stage, offering guests a new way to engage with Times Square's theater culture from the center of it all. Designed with photo-worthy moments throughout, the suite invites guests to capture and share their own Lost Boys-inspired adventure and layers theatrical design with 1980s nostalgia, from vintage entertainment touches to boardwalk-inspired details that nod to the cult classic's sun-soaked, after-dark world.

Blending the hotel's modern aesthetic with The Lost Boys' distinctly seaside style, the suite brings the production to life through immersive design elements. A mural of a glowing Ferris wheel set against a starry night sky anchors the bedroom, while a graffiti-style "We're Inviting You In" mural sets the tone in the living area. Throughout the suite, guests will discover nods to the era, including a vintage cabinet television and VCR stocked with 1980s VHS tapes, a record player and vinyl collection, and a classic beachside bench - creating an atmosphere that balances amusement park nostalgia with the after-dark intrigue of The Lost Boys.

"Broadway is one of the defining experiences for visitors to New York City, and with our location in the center of the Theater District next to the Palace Theatre, we're uniquely positioned to bring guests even closer to the shows they love," said Matthew Belsito, director of marketing, Tempo by Hilton Times Square. "The Lost Boys has captivated audiences with its imaginative storytelling and distinctive visual world, making it a natural fit for an immersive hotel experience. Together, we've created a stay that invites guests to step inside the story while discovering the vibrant spirit of Times Square."

"We have been overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and outpouring of love from the audiences coming to see The Lost Boys and are thrilled that Tempo by Hilton Times Square has created this immersive experience that allows our fans to extend their time in Santa Carla through the night," said producers James Carpinello, Marcus Chait, and Patrick Wilson, The Lost Boys.

The experience extends beyond the suite to Highball, the hotel's bar and lounge, where exclusive food and beverage offerings showcase the production's playful, after-dark energy. One signature cocktail, a clarified Canerock Jamaican rum with lime juice and demerara, is topped with red cotton candy to create a dramatic "bleeding" effect as the cotton candy dissolves - a playful nod to one of The Lost Boys' most iconic moments.

A special prix fixe menu is also available, providing guests with a three-course savory experience. Choose between Four Cheese Arancini or Spicy Tiny Crispy Rice as a starter, followed by Cheese Ravioli, Roasted Chicken Breast, or Korean BBQ Glazed Salmon as a main, and conclude the meal with an Old-Fashioned Rice Pudding topped with cinnamon, gummy worms, raspberry, and caramel popcorn. Paying homage to a memorable scene from the show, the dessert arrives in a Chinese takeout-style rice container with edible chopsticks, mimicking the moment when a seemingly innocent rice dish gets an unexpected surprise.

Guests who book The Lost Boys Suite will receive additional perks designed exclusively for the collaboration, including a curated merchandise package featuring apparel and accessories inspired by the show, a themed welcome sweet treat, and a food and beverage credit to enjoy during the stay.

Whether visiting New York for a weekend getaway or planning a theater-filled escape, The Lost Boys Suite offers fans a new way to experience one of Broadway's most celebrated productions. For more information about The Lost Boys Suite or to book a stay, please visit the hotel's website. THE LOST BOYS tickets are available at BroadwayDirect.com, or at The Palace Theatre box office.
