1,100-Foot-High Skating Rink Returns To Hudson Yards In 2023

HUDSON YARDS, NY - Thrill-seekers in Hudson Yards can expect holiday fun with a twist again this year.

Sky Skate Presented by Dunkin’, New York City’s highest skating rink with 360-degree city views, will return to Edge at Hudson Yards this month, officials said Monday.

Extending 65 feet from the 100th floor of 30 Hudson Yards and soaring over 1,000 feet in the air, the 1,000-square-foot synthetic ice rink is set to feature a glass floor, angled glass walls and outdoor skyline steps. The rink will be open from Nov. 15 to Jan. 14.

“We’re always seeking to elevate the experience our visitors have with unique programming that you can’t find anywhere else, and we’re so proud to have the highest skating rink in the city within our sky deck,” said Douglas Trueblood, Hudson Yards Experiences' vice president of marketing.

On select dates, visitors at the Sky Skate's Holiday Village will be able to enjoy free Dunkin’ Holiday Beverages and donuts. Those who create a custom holiday photo card at the pop up will earn a $5 Dunkin’ gift card.

If ice skating on a glass floor above New York City isn’t enough, thrill-seekers can also participate in City Climb, the highest external building climb in the world. Located above the sky deck, City Climb challenges the adventurous to scale a 1,200+ foot supertall building, then lean out from the outdoor platform at the top of the skyscraper.

Tickets for 30-minute Sky Skate time slots are on sale here. Tickets include admission to Edge and complimentary skate rental.
