There is no place quite like New York to spend the holidays, and the Empire State Building tops the list of things to do in NYC, said Jean-Yves Ghazi, president of the Empire State Building Observatory. From photos with Santa to classic film screenings, guests will make holiday memories to last a lifetime with the best views in New York City.
Topped with Tinsel
Every corner of the Empire State Building Observatory will be adorned in festive holiday decorations with shining wreaths, lights, tinsel, bows, and a giant menorah at the two-story building model. As they make their way through the Observatory Experience’s immersive exhibits, guests can pose for holiday photos in a dedicated corner of the 80th Floor with Christmas trees, snowflakes, presents, and a cozy fireplace backdrop inspired by Santa’s workshop.
Once they reach the iconic 86th Floor Observatory, guests can pose in a dedicated Ghirardelli corner decorated with a candy cane arch, holiday greenery, twinkle lights, and Ghirardelli’s fan-favorite peppermint bark squares.
Guests will conclude their Observatory visit in the building’s famed Fifth Avenue Lobby “ featured in the holiday classic, Elf “ that is decorated with classic holiday decorations like hanging twinkle lights, wreaths, and an oversized Christmas tree. The iconic Fifth Avenue Windows depict scenes of sleighs full of elaborately wrapped gifts, teddy bears, and holiday ice cream sundaes by Ghirardelli Chocolate.
Tenants and visitors who pass through the Fifth Avenue Lobby from Monday through Friday in the month of December will hear holiday tunes performed by professional pianists.
The Man with the Bag
On Nov. 30 and Dec. 7, 9, 11, 14, 16, 18, and 20, Santa Claus himself will spread holiday cheer and pose for photos with Observatory guests in his dedicated corner on the building’s 80th Floor. More information on Santa visits can be found at esbholiday.com.
