Top of the Rock: All-Inclusive Pass

About this experience

About Top of the Rock: All-Inclusive Pass Top of the Rock is an observation deck complex at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in Midtown Manhattan, sitting atop 30 Rock, one of the centrepiece buildings of the Rockefeller Center development completed in 1933. The observation area spans three floors and rises to 850 feet above street level, offering unobstructed sightlines across Manhattan, including a direct view of the Empire State Building to the south and Central Park to the north. The All-Inclusive Pass covers the full range of experiences on site, from the welcome gallery and interactive film experience at entry level through to the open-air upper deck. It is one of the few observation venues in New York where the viewing platform is set back from the building edge, giving a clear panorama rather than a straight-down perspective. What to expect Entry begins with the welcome gallery, which provides context on the history of Rockefeller Center and the building itself. An interactive film experience follows before visitors ascend to the three-floor observation deck. On the upper level, SKYLIFT is an open-air platform that extends outward, adding an elevated vantage point above the standard deck. The Beam Experience is a separate ride that positions guests on a recreated steel beam above the skyline, referencing the famous 1932 construction photograph taken at this height, and provides a distinctive photo opportunity. Tickets cover access to all of these features, including the welcome gallery, the interactive film, SKYLIFT, and The Beam Experience. Top of the Rock and getting there The observation deck sits within 30 Rockefeller Plaza, the 70-storey Art Deco tower designed by Raymond Hood and completed in 1933 as part of the broader Rockefeller Center complex. The entrance at 30 Rockefeller Plaza is a short walk from the 47th to 50th Streets Rockefeller Center subway station, served by the B, D, F, and M lines.
