Deets: Edge at Hudson Yards, the highest indoor/outdoor sky deck in the Western Hemisphere, announces a complete reimagining of its defining New York City experience, set to debut in Summer 2026. The sweeping, multi-million dollar transformation will immerse guests in a kaleidoscopic world of light, color and motion as they ascend 1,100 feet from street level into the Manhattan skyline. Spanning across the entirety of Edge’s indoor footprint, from the 4th floor entry to 100th floor sky deck, these new permanent installations invite guests on a multi-sensory journey that uniquely evolves from dawn to dusk, shifting across seasons, ensuring every visit reveals something new.
Hudson Yards Experiences, the company responsible for operating and marketing Edge, collaborated with the strategy and experience design team at multidimensional agency Journey, renowned experiential entertainment studio, Moment Factory, and New York City-based design studio, SOFTlab, to design and install next-generation exhibits throughout the space. From captivating arrival to cinematic ascent, each new space invites guests to linger in an entirely different world, all before stepping onto the most breathtaking outdoor sky deck in New York City, with its thrilling glass floor and angled glass walls that make one feel as if they are suspended in the sky.
The forthcoming installations include:
Pulse: A fully immersive world of pulsing electric color, light and sound that distills the city’s intoxicating energy and puts it at your fingertips.
Crystal Cave: A step inside a rainbow of translucent jewels that change color with the movement of the sun as it rises and sets in the skyline.
Infinite City: Boundless vertical luminous “skyscrapers” that fragment and reframe the city into a hypnotic series of worlds within worlds.
And more to be revealed.
This new suite of visually stunning experiences and content will float guests in a sea of prismatic clouds, transitioning from the vibrant colors of a New York City day to a spectacular sunset, and finally diving into the deep abstractions of the city at night before reaching the renowned outdoor sky deck. With an updated focus on cutting-edge design, Edge will surpass its status as an iconic observation deck and become an immersive entertainment experience unlike anything the city has seen before.
Hint for the Average Socialite: Official opening date to be announced. Stay tuned for updates.
