SUMMARY:New York Spring Marquee Auctions (expected)
LOCATION:Christie's\, 20 Rockefeller Plaza\; Sotheby's\, 945 Madison Ave
 nue\; Phillips\, 432 Park Avenue\, New York\, United States
DESCRIPTION:Ten days in May when Christie's\, Sotheby's and Phillips sta
 ge their largest modern and contemporary evening sales blocks apart.\nh
 ttps://globalsocialseason.com/events/new-york-spring-auctions\nDates: N
 ot yet announced. The spring marquee week has an unusually stable patte
 rn: the houses stage their modern and contemporary evening sales across
  the second and third weeks of May\, with previews opening about a fort
 night earlier\, and they avoid scheduling two headline evening sales ag
 ainst each other. In 2026 the sequence ran May 14 to May 20\; a compara
 ble 2027 window would fall in the second week of May and the days immed
 iately after. Christie's\, Sotheby's and Phillips normally publish exac
 t dates two to four months ahead\, alongside their first consigned high
 lights.

  as running November 9 to 20\, 2026 at 945 Madison Avenue\; the individ

  not be retrieved from christies.com\, which our tooling cannot reach\;
  historically Christie's schedules its 20th and 21st Century evening sa
 les inside the same fortnight and does not run them against Sotheby's.

 e could read.
