This brand-new venue is one of the most sophisticated rooftop bars in New York City. Hyatt Times Square didn’t spare money or good taste to build this bar and honor one of the best views of Manhattan’s skyline. The tallest rooftop bar in the city is the place to be for New Year’s Eve as it offers exclusive direct views of the Ball Drop.

Live View of the Ball Drop New Year's Eve at Hyatt Centric Times Square

While the outside terrace will allow you to see the most spectacular New Year’s countdown in the world, the indoor lounge will provide the intimate feel you want when welcoming 2025 with the most important people in your life. Everything, of course, surrounded by the iconic architecture and splendorous skyscrapers such as the Chrysler Building and One World Trade Center you can only see from the tallest rooftop bar in New York City.

***NOTE – The live viewing area to watch the Ball Drop is on the outdoor terrace.***
