11. Winter Wonderland at the Empire State Building
On display in the Empire State Building’s Fifth Avenue Lobby windows are a series of holiday scenes featuring gold, glitter, and candy landscapes in honor of the holiday season. Complementing the window displays are the Art Deco Lobby’s holiday lights, wreaths, and Christmas tree. On Mondays through Fridays, visitors to the Empire State Building will be treated to holiday tunes played by professional pianists from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Starting December 2nd, DO, Cookie Dough Confections, a New York City-based edible cookie dough and cookie company, will host a pop-up venue in the building’s 86th Floor Observatory. The company will offer six holidays and city-themed treats from a special 90th-anniversary cart through the first three weekends of the month. Upon entering the Empire State Building Observatory Experience, guests will be greeted by a giant menorah in celebration of Hanukkah. In addition, the 86th Floor Observatory will have a section dedicated to taking holiday portraits. Decorations will remain on display through January 6, 2022.
