Enjoy Family Fun at Edge at Hudson Yards this October Half Term

With October half term now closer than the first day back at school, the countdown to the next family getaway is already underway.

If international travel is on the cards, New York City could be a worthwhile choice. Flights are generally cheaper than in peak summer, the weather is mild enough to comfortably walk around, and the turning colours of the leaves are perfect for a Pinterest board. Autumn in New York really is, as many a jazz crooner has sung, so inviting.

Though much of New York is family-friendly, Hudson Yards is a great anchor destination of choice for families. With lots of urban green space, dining destinations for all tastes, world-class shopping, and plenty of museums and attractions – Hudson Yards offers an engaging yet calming experience for families of all ages.

Edge, New York City’s highest indoor and outdoor observation deck, is arguably one of Hudson Yards’ most exciting destinations for families. There are plenty of experiences and offerings to keep families occupied for hours, combining inimitable views of the Manhattan skyline with interactive installations and delicious dining inside.

Save more when visiting with family

Until the end of 2026, save 20% when you purchase four or more General Admission tickets, including at least one adult and one child ticket. To sweeten the deal, every child receives a complimentary scoop of ice cream, plus an Edge Explorer Guide, taking their experience of the New York skyline and Edge’s all-new indoor attractions to the next level.

Experience the all-new interior journey at Edge

This summer, Edge opened seven all-new immersive installations designed to surround guests in the lights, colours, sounds and energy of New York City. Begin the experience with installations like PULSE, where over 400 glowing, colour-changing orbs surround you, before zooming up to level 100 in the cinematic SKYRISE lift. At the top, see how CRYSTAL CAVE casts rainbows onto the floor, and work your way through New York’s largest kaleidoscope room set to an original soundtrack.

Cruise through Edge in style

This autumn, Edge has introduced the All-Access VIP Experience, offering private groups priority access throughout the Edge experience, accompanied by a dedicated guide who shares behind-the-scenes stories and insights. Your guide will also act as your personal photographer, as well as share insider tips on capturing the best shots to really wow people back home. Included in the offer is one printed photo, a 10% gift shop discount, a branded tote bag, a postcard, and a complimentary drink, which can be a glass of Champagne for those aged 21 and above.
