I purchased 4 tickets, but one ticket was not recognized by the Empire State Building ticket desk. It took a supervisor to finally approve entrance.

Ticket to the Empire State Building

Climbing to the top of the Empire State Building, in the heart of New York, is an unparalleled and unique experience for all travelers visiting New York City. In its day, it was the winner of the "race into the sky", as 40 Wall Street and the Chrysler building were being built at the same time, and each one vied for the title of the world's tallest building.

The Empire State Building was the tallest building in the world for some forty years, and its impressive 86th-floor observation deck that stands 1,047 ft (320 m) tall is thanks to this "race into the sky". Upon seeing that the Chrysler Building would beat the Empire State for height, thanks to its steel spire, five extra floors were added, including the 86th-floor observation deck.

Today, this is a glass-enclosed and outdoor open-air terrace from where you can enjoy panoramic views of Central Park, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Chrysler Building and the Statue of Liberty, among many other renowned landmarks.

What’s more, you'll also have the opportunity to admire its famous art deco-inspired lobby and discover the Empire State Building's Interactive Museum exhibits, located on the 2nd floor and on the newly renovated 80th floor—two tickets for the price of one!

Interactive Attractions

On July 29, 2019, the second phase of the Empire State Building Observatory Experience was inaugurated, aiming to create even more unforgettable moments. This experimental journey takes visitors through the construction of the building up to its current status as a pop culture icon.

You'll also find a replica of the original structure, the technology which moves the elevators within the skyscraper, and much much more. And 72 screens with 180 degree immersive sound show adverts, films, TV shows, comics and games in which the mythical building has featured—and you'll even be able to high five King Kong himself, with 4D elements making it the closest you can possibly get to the giant ape!

Express Ticket

When booking, you can choose the express entry option, which means you won't have to wait in line to enter the building or take the lift.

You can also choose the express entrance only to the 86th floor, or the option that includes queue-free access to the observation deck on the 102nd floor, from where you'll have even better views of the Big Apple thanks to its 24 floor-to-ceiling windows. Not only that, but you'll be taken up to the observation deck in a panoramic lift.
