Can you imagine being the main character of Times Square? By booking this experience, your photo will shine brightly on one of the most famous billboards in the world. You'll become a star for a day in the heart of New York!

What Does This Experience in Times Square Include?

By booking this activity, you'll have the opportunity to see your photo projected on one of the billboards in Times Square, in the heart of the Big Apple. Your photo will be shown for 15 seconds of fame, repeating every hour, for 24 hours on the day you choose. We guarantee a minimum of 22 appearances on the huge screen!

You can upload a group or individual photo. Which do you prefer? There is no limit to the number of people who can appear in the image!

It's the perfect way to celebrate a special moment, immortalise your trip to New York, or simply enjoy an unforgettable adventure. Are you ready to be the centre of attention?

Prime Location

Your photo will be projected on one of the spectacular billboards strategically located in the heart of Times Square to ensure maximum visibility:

  • Main billboard: located at 1560 Broadway (between 46th and 47th Streets), just above the Pelé store and directly opposite the famous red stairs of TKTS. A hotspot where millions of people will see your image!
  • Additional billboard: there is also a second location at 1500 Broadway (between 43rd and 44th Streets), just above the popular Carlo's Bake Shop, only two blocks from the main screen.

Normally, the screening takes place on the main billboard, located above the Pelé shop. However, if all the slots for that screen are occupied, the additional billboard will be used.

Personalise Your Moment of Fame!

We want your debut in Times Square to be as unique as you are. That's why we offer several customisation options during the photo upload process:

  • Custom frames: choose a unique frame for your photo. From standard options to designs with special messages such as “Happy Birthday,” “Congratulations,” and even “Will you marry me?”.
  • Write a Message: you can include a short line of text within the photo to share your message with the world. You'll leave your mark on the Big Apple!

How Does it Work?

The process to see yourself in Times Square is very simple. Once you book this experience, you'll receive a code that allows you to access the upload portal where you'll upload your photo. It's important that you do this as soon as possible, as your time slot will not be reserved until your image is submitted and approved.

You'll receive confirmation of your assigned time slot at least 1 day before your chosen date. Share this schedule with your friends and family around the world! They will be able to see your moment of glory via the live online broadcast of the billboard!
