CEO Jeff Nyikos and Robert Sanders, President of the Meetings & Incentives division at Leros Travel Group, are at the iconic venue The Capitol Theatre & Garcia's in Port Chester. In this episode of Hospitality Now, we have an in-depth conversation with Lauren Northey, the Special Events Sales Manager who has been working directly with Peter Shapiro, owner of The Cap, since 2012. The special events at The Cap and Garcia’s are simply amazing — and if you love rock & roll, this is the place to be.

Lauren discusses how she got into the hospitality business and the major, positive economic impact The Capitol Theatre has had on Port Chester and its surrounding communities. The venue supports local restaurants and bars, keeps economic vitality at the forefront, and continues to showcase its rich musical legacy — from historic legends like the Grateful Dead, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, and Janis Joplin to current icons such as Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Widespread Panic, Sting, and Tedeschi Trucks Band, to name just a few.

The Cap is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2026, so there’s so much excitement ahead. Check it out!
