New Immersive Experiences at Edge NYC

Seven new installations will surround visitors in the magic of the city before taking a single step outside to the Edge outdoor observation deck. These indoor environments include:

• Prism: Your experience begins here as you walk through the lens of an ever-changing prism, where shifting images of New York City are refracted into changing angles, colors and patterns.
• Pulse: More than 350 glowing, color-changing globes surround you, acknowledging your movement with pulses of white light that ensure a unique visual experience for every guest.
• Skyrise: Feel the speed of the city as you enter a cinematic elevator experience with visuals and sound that simulate the speed and energy of rising 100 floors above Manhattan in less than a minute.
• Reflections: Step into a forest of 200 spinning mirrored surfaces that each turn to look at you as you explore the kinetic sculpture.
• Kaleidoscope: Journey through a series of giant kaleidoscope rooms — including NYC’s largest kaleidoscope — where light and color shift and reflect all around you, set to original music. Nearby spaces feature changing patterns, photo spots and interactive elements that evolve throughout the day.
• Crystal Cave: Step beneath a 25-foot canopy of giant crystals that catch the light and cast rainbows on the floor as you move through the installation.
• Infinite City: Explore 18 large-scale, light-filled columns inspired by New York City skyscrapers, with mirrored and translucent surfaces that reflect the skyline and respond to guest movement through waves of color and sound.

Edge NYC is known for its 1,131-foot-high outdoor observation deck and 360-degree skyline views. The new indoor journey expands the experience beyond the view by adding environments that change by time of day, guest movement and light conditions.

To pull off this massive creative feat, Hudson Yards Experiences, the team behind Edge NYC, collaborated with globally renowned experiential design and entertainment studios, including Moment Factory, Journey and SOFTlab.

Edge NYC’s indoor transformation also includes an all-new Skyline Bar & Café by Tao Group Hospitality. The menu, led by Tao Group Hospitality’s Chief Culinary Officer, Chef Ralph Scamardella, features an elevated assortment of breakfast, lunch and afternoon snacks inspired by New York City’s most iconic dishes, including mini smoked bagel bites, babka pastry sticks, Wagyu “dirty water” hot dogs, mini cannolis and more. Additional new culinary and nightlife offerings include the return of Avenue to New York City as Avenue Sky Lounge and an all-new dining experience at Peak with Priceless.
