Our Guide to Empire State Building Observatory Ticket
GREAT ATD VALUE - REAL TICKETS NOT VOUCHERS!
Unlike most of our competitors, we will send you an actual Empire State Building Observatory Ticket to your home address, so you can move directly past the ticketing queue, saving as much as 25-30 minutes off the wait time.
Your Empire State Building Observatory Ticket gives you entrance to the 86th Floor Observatory which offers some of the best 360° panoramic views of Manhattan and Beyond – on a clear day clear day you can see for almost 80 miles, with five states in view- New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Massachusetts. The Observatory has a heated, glass-enclosed area, which is surrounded by an outdoor open-air terrace, equipped with high-power binoculars. Visit during the day and see the New York in all its glory or for a more romantic experience, visit at night and see the illuminated city sparkle.
The Empire State Building is open daily throughout the year from 8.00am to 2.00am (last elevator ascends to the Observatory at 1.15am). Attraction Tickets Direct will send you an open-dated Empire State Building Observatory Ticket which can be redeemed at any time during your stay in New York. Peak times are from 11.00am to 1.00pm, and one hour before and after sunset. If you wish to avoid the crowds, we recommend you visit outside these times.
Please note the Empire State Building Observatory does not include access to the 102nd Floor Observatory (these tickets can only be purchased at the Empire State Building itself. Current cost $15 per person).
