Edge Express Pass Tickets with Skip-the-Line Entry
The Edge Express Pass gives you flexible access to the Western Hemisphere's highest outdoor observation deck at Hudson Yards. This skip-the-line ticket lets you visit Edge anytime during opening hours on your chosen date, standing 1,131 feet above Manhattan's streets for 360-degree views across New York City.
Your flexible entry ticket includes access to the triangular observation platform that extends 80 feet out from the building, plus the daring glass floor where you can look straight down at the city below. Interactive exhibits throughout the experience add context to the landmarks you'll spot, from the Empire State Building to the Hudson River. The platform's unique angled design and floor-to-ceiling glass walls create unobstructed sightlines in every direction.

Plan Your Visit to Edge
Edge opens daily from 10am to 9pm, with the last elevator ride departing 50 minutes before closing time. Your flexible entry ticket allows one visit anytime during these hours on your booked date. Weekday mornings typically see smaller crowds, whilst sunset slots around 6-7pm offer spectacular golden hour photography. Allow 45-60 minutes for your full Edge experience.
The observation deck sits on the 100th floor of 30 Hudson Yards. Take the subway to 34th Street-Hudson Yards station (7 train) or 34th Street-Penn Station (various lines), then walk 5-10 minutes to the entrance. If you're exploring more of Manhattan's heights, consider combining your visit with tickets for Empire State Building observation decks or the innovative SUMMIT One Vanderbilt experience.
Edge offers all-weather viewing through its indoor spaces when conditions require it, though the outdoor platform remains the main attraction. Photography is encouraged throughout your visit, so bring your camera to capture those vertiginous shots through the glass floor and sweeping city panoramas.
