Edge NYC debuts all-new indoor immersive experience

Edge NYC, the highest indoor and outdoor sky deck in the Western Hemisphere, located at Hudson Yards, today unveiled an all-new indoor experience featuring seven immersive, all-weather installations that transform Edge into New York City’s premier indoor-outdoor experiential destination. Representing the largest transformation of Edge since its opening in 2020, this multi-million-dollar investment brings the magic of the skyline indoors year-round with playful, colorful installations designed for discovery, photography, and social sharing, including NYC’s largest kaleidoscope – a room with four interactive zones filled with endless reflections and vibrant colors, where every angle reveals a completely new view.

Alongside the new indoor installations, guests can enjoy New York City’s highest outdoor sky deck with breathtaking 360-degree skyline views and elevated culinary and dining offerings, creating a year-round destination that seamlessly blends immersive environments, iconic views, and hospitality. Edge NYC is also home to a reimagined Peak with Priceless and the brand new Avenue Sky Lounge by Tao Group Hospitality on Level 101, featuring a complete renovation of the restaurant and event space.

The celebration for this new experience will continue beyond opening day with special programming June 11–14, including live entertainment, DJs, giveaways, and more. Tickets for the all-new Edge NYC are on sale now at edgenyc.com.

NYC’s Premier Indoor-Outdoor Experiential Destination

Created in collaboration with globally recognized experiential and design studios Moment Factory, SOFTlab, and Journey, the seven new installations and hospitality spaces transform Edge NYC into New York City’s most striking backdrop for photos and content – environments that respond to movement, shift with the time of day, and evolve across seasons, ensuring no two visits and no two photos look the same. Spanning multiple levels of the experience from Level 4 entry to the Level 100 sky deck, each installation is set to an original music soundscape and layers light, color, reflection, and motion to create moments worth sharing and returning for.

Together with the outdoor sky deck and a day-to-night culinary program curated by Tao Group Hospitality, Edge NYC now offers something no other attraction in New York can match: world-class immersive environments, unobstructed 360-degree skyline views, and premium dining and nightlife, all within a single destination, reinforcing Hudson Yards as a premier lifestyle, dining, and entertainment hub.

The seven new experiences at Edge NYC include:

• PRISM: Begin the journey at Edge NYC on Level 4 by passing through an ever-evolving prism that transforms iconic New York City imagery into shifting colors, patterns, and perspectives – setting the stage for the new experience that unfolds throughout the attraction.
• PULSE: Enter an interactive light installation where 450 glowing, color-changing orbs respond to guest movement, creating a unique experience with every visit.
• SKYRISE: Ride a cinematic elevator that uses visuals and sound to simulate rising 100 floors above Manhattan in under 60 seconds, setting the pace for everything above.
• REFLECTIONS: Walk through a two-level space of 200 spinning mirrored panels that track your movement and trigger responsive light shows, making every path through the living sculpture one-of-a-kind.
• KALEIDOSCOPE: Move through four kaleidoscope zones in one immersive room, including NYC’s largest kaleidoscope, where light, color, and original music shift around you continuously. Interactive photo spots and evolving patterns uniquely designed for morning, afternoon, sunset, and night ensure no two visits look the same.
• CRYSTAL CAVE: Step beneath a 25-foot canopy of oversized crystals – transparent, reflective, and alive with color – that interact with light in unexpected ways from morning to night. Daytime visits may reveal rainbows scattering across the floor, while after dark, an immersive light show transforms the cave into one of the attraction’s most striking moments.
• INFINITE CITY: Explore 18 large-scale illuminated columns inspired by New York City skyscrapers, where mirrored and translucent surfaces reflect the surrounding skyline and respond to your movement with waves of color and sound through daytime or nighttime visits.

“The next era of Edge will take guests beyond the view,” said Andrew Lustgarten, Executive Chairman of Hudson Yards Experiences. “We’ve created a multi-layered, immersive indoor-outdoor entertainment destination where exceptional hospitality, food and beverage offerings, and experience make every visit feel like a once-in-a-lifetime New York City moment.”
