Edge Observation Deck Sunset VIP Experience Tickets

Skip the queues and watch Manhattan transform from golden hour to glittering nightscape with VIP sunset tickets to Edge Observation Deck. Perched 1,271 feet above Hudson Yards on Level 100, Edge is the highest outdoor observation deck in the Western Hemisphere and the perfect vantage point for New York's most spectacular sunsets.

Your VIP experience includes priority entry through dedicated security lanes and exclusive elevator access, plus a complimentary glass of bubbly to toast the views. The triangular outdoor platform extends into the sky, offering unobstructed panoramic views of the Empire State Building, Hudson River, and Central Park. As the sun sets, you'll watch the city's lights begin to twinkle below through floor-to-ceiling glass panels that make you feel suspended above Manhattan.

Highlights

  • Glass Floor Experience: Step onto a 225-square-foot glass section and look straight down at the city streets below for a heart-racing perspective
  • Angled Glass Walls: Lean out safely over the skyline for unique photo opportunities you can't get anywhere else
  • Skyline Seats: Relax in elevated seating while sipping your complimentary champagne above the Manhattan skyline
  • Eastern Point: Stand at the triangular tip of Edge for the ultimate photo opportunity suspended above the city
  • Priority VIP Access: Skip regular queues with dedicated security lanes and exclusive elevator rides
  • Sky Assurance Weather Guarantee: Reschedule or return the same day if weather conditions are poor, plus receive 20% off at Edge's bar

Plan Your Visit to Edge Observation Deck

Your VIP sunset ticket allows flexible arrival time on your selected evening, giving you the freedom to time your visit perfectly with the golden hour. The experience runs at your own pace, though most visitors spend 60-90 minutes on the deck to fully enjoy the sunset transition.

Edge is located at Hudson Yards and easily accessible by subway (7 train to 34 St-Hudson Yards) or taxi.
