Marquee Skydeck at Edge is officially set to reopen for its second season on May 1, bringing elevated nightlife back to one of New York City’s most iconic open-air venues, more than 1,100 feet above the ground. 

The venue, perched atop Edge — the highest outdoor sky deck in the Western Hemisphere at 1,131 feet — transforms the observation deck into a high-energy nightlife destination each summer. Operated by Tao Group Hospitality, Marquee Skydeck combines panoramic city views with high-energy DJ sets.

Last year, the 2025 season opened with a kickoff performance by Maceo Plex on May 31, preceded by a sneak peek set from Carlita on May 16. Events ran Friday and Saturday nights throughout the summer, setting the stage for Marquee Skydeck as a seasonal staple in New York City’s nightlife scene.

This year’s 2026 season will feature performances from Benny Benassi, MK, Cassian, Gareth Emery, Kaz James, Layla Benitez and Hot Since 82, with additional artists expected to be announced. 

Edge, which opened in 2020, has become one of New York City’s most prominent observation destinations. The angular terrace extends 65 feet from the 100th floor of Hudson Yards and is surrounded by clear panoramic glass, giving visitors the sensation of floating above Manhattan while taking in its skyline views.

According to Andrew Lustgarten, executive chairman of Hudson Yards Experience, Marquee Skydeck is aimed at “the most discerning New Yorkers,” offering an after-hours experience unlike any other in the city. The 2026 season will run throughout the summer, with tickets and full event details to be released soon.
