What you can expect

Begin your visit with the highlight of New York City - the legendary 86th Floor Observatory of the Empire State Building, the highest open-air observatory in NYC. At 1,050 feet (320 meters), this iconic deck offers unobstructed 360-degree views of Manhattan and beyond. From one spot, you can marvel at the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, Times Square, the Brooklyn Bridge, and One World Trade Center. On clear days, your gaze stretches up to six states: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and Delaware. With high-powered binoculars and climate-controlled indoor galleries, the observatory is comfortable year-round, offering picture-perfect moments by day or sparkling cityscapes by night.

For the ultimate skyline perspective, upgrade to the 102nd Floor Observatory. Recently renovated with floor-to-ceiling glass windows, this enclosed gallery soars 1,250 feet above Manhattan. Here, panoramic views stretch up to 80 miles, creating a breathtaking bucket-list moment for visitors from around the globe.

After the views, step into history at the 2nd Floor Museum. This immersive space features 12 interactive exhibits that bring the Empire State Building’s story to life. Relive the dramatic “Race to the Sky,” walk through scenes from the 1920s, and stand in the hands of King Kong for a one-of-a-kind photo. Multimedia galleries showcase the building’s starring roles in movies, TV, comics, and advertising, making it a cultural icon as much as an architectural marvel.

Every ticket also includes access to the Art Deco Fifth Avenue lobby, one of New York’s most photographed interiors, with its elegant murals and timeless design.

Short on time - Choose an Express Ticket to skip the lines and enjoy red-carpet entry - the fastest way to the top.

Your visit also comes with peace of mind. Following a 165 million renovation, the Empire State Building now features advanced MERV 13 air filters, fresh air ventilation, and AtmosAir purification technology proven to neutralize 99 percent of coronavirus and other airborne particles. It is also the first commercial real estate portfolio in the U.S. to achieve the WELL Health-Safety Rating, ensuring world-class standards for visitor safety and wellness.

From unmatched 360-degree views and immersive museum exhibits to its iconic Art Deco design, the Empire State Building is more than an attraction - it’s the defining New York City experience.
