Empire State Building: Express Entry
Skip the line and get straight into New York's most famous skyscraper

Skip the long lines to New York's most spectacular skyscraper and jump to the front of all queues inside, plus enhance the experience with the official Empire State Building app – all signage, multimedia, and exhibits are available in nine languages

Get unforgettable 360° views of New York City and beyond from the Observatory on the 86th floor

See the newly renovated Art Deco lobby, and the 'Dare To Dream' and 'Sustainability' exhibits, and explore the revamped 80th Floor featuring more exciting, artistic exhibits

Get into an Empire State of Mind, with entrance to the building's second-floor galleries included as part of your ticket. Learn more about the face of the Big Apple, from its inception and construction to its intertwined history with Hollywood – you'll find exhibits devoted to King Kong and the building's other most famous celebrity visitors.

Think of it as a museum for all things Empire State. Try hands-on experiences that'll leave you feeling like you played a hand in constructing the tower, walk through the photography of Lewis Hine (including his iconic image of workmen lunching on a steel beam high above Manhattan), experience opening day in the 1930s, and learn about the pioneering technology of the original elevators.
