Top of the Rock Observation Deck VIP Pass with the Beam & Skylift Experience at Top of The Rock

Top of the Rock VIP Pass Tickets

The Top of the Rock Observation Deck VIP Pass with the Beam & Skylift Experience delivers Manhattan's most comprehensive observation deck visit. You'll skip the standard queues for priority access to the 67th, 69th and 70th floors of 30 Rockefeller Plaza, where 360-degree views stretch from Central Park to the Empire State Building. The VIP treatment includes exclusive experiences you won't find on regular tickets.

Your adventure begins at the VIP Lounge on 52 W 50th Street with dedicated check-in and a guide who accompanies you to the observation platforms. Beyond the panoramic city views, you'll experience two unique attractions: sitting on a recreation of the famous 1932 construction worker's beam for professional photos, and ascending the Skylift platform above the 70th floor for perspectives you can't get anywhere else in New York. A complimentary drink at the Weather Room on the 67th floor and 20% off at the gift shop round out this premium experience.

Plan Your Visit to Top of the Rock

Top of the Rock opens daily from 9:00am to 12:00am, with the VIP experience lasting 1.3 to 2 hours including check-in, observation time, and both exclusive attractions. Meeting point is at the VIP Lounge at 52 W 50th Street, right in Rockefeller Center. Arrive a few minutes before your timed entry slot with valid photo ID for verification.

For the best experience, consider morning visits or late evening slots to avoid sunset crowds. Children under 18 must be accompanied by adults, and height requirements apply for the Beam and Skylift (minimum 52 inches tall). Large bags aren't permitted for security reasons, so pack light. While most areas are wheelchair accessible, the Beam experience has physical limitations. If you're exploring more of Manhattan's heights, the Empire State Building tickets offer different perspectives of the same skyline, whilst Edge Observation Deck tickets provide outdoor sky deck thrills at Hudson Yards.
