What happens on the day
Nestled at the height of 30 Rockefeller Plaza, Top of the Rock’s three levels of indoor and outdoor observation decks deliver spectacular, unobstructed views of the city skyline! With terraces facing east, west, north, and south, Top of the Rock’s panoramic sights make it the ultimate observation deck in NYC. Explore 9,500 square feet of unobstructed outdoor viewing space, the most of any New York observatory.
Upon arrival, admire the stunning, shimmering Swarovski chandelier on your way to the mezzanine level. Explore the newly reimagined Welcome Gallery, marvel at a dynamic 10-foot model of the entire campus, and enjoy an immersive multisensory film that brings the landmark’s history and vision to life.
Your visit to the Welcome Gallery culminates in a thrilling 43-second elevator ride to the 67th floor, where you’ll arrive at Level 1 of the Observation Deck. Then, admire breathtaking views from the completely open-air deck on the 70th-floor of Central Park, Empire State Building, One World Trade Center and downtown Manhattan.
To top it off, enjoy access to The Beam, a thrilling experience that recreates the legendary 1932 photo, “Lunch Atop a Skyscraper”. Rising 12 feet above Top of the Rock’s 69th-floor Observation Deck, The Beam rotates 180 degrees to treat visitors to a panorama of the NYC skyline!
