The Empire State Building 102nd and 86th Floor Observatories ticket gives you access to two distinct viewing levels inside one of New York’s most iconic landmarks. Begin your visit on the 86th floor, where the open air deck offers sweeping views across Manhattan and beyond. From there, continue up to the 102nd floor, where floor to ceiling windows provide a quieter and more elevated perspective of the skyline. Experiencing both levels allows you to see the city from two unique vantage points, each with its own atmosphere.

See New York from Every Angle

Along with the views, your admission includes access to interactive exhibits and historic displays that share the story of the building and its place in New York’s history. You can take your time exploring before or after heading to the observatories, making the visit feel more complete. This experience is perfect for couples looking for a memorable skyline moment, families exploring together, or anyone who wants to enjoy New York City from above in a meaningful and memorable way.
