Here, guests will enjoy complimentary snacks and non-alcoholic beverages, see memorabilia gifted by celebrities, and commemorate their visit with a selfie at the Halo Photo Booth. A chilled bottle of Veuve Cliquot is also available for an extra charge.

After visiting the green room, everyone will head out on a private tour that includes a visit to the new guest-only entrance on 34th Street, where they will receive a complimentary photo in front of the 25-foot model of the building.

The tour also includes a behind-the-scenes look at archival construction photos on the Concourse level, a visit to the 86th floor open-air Observatory, and to finish the experience, a visit to the resorted Art Deco Fifth Avenue lobby.
