Rockefeller Center Plaza

Midtown · Plaza / public space · Free

You don't need a ticket for the best of Rockefeller Center. Stand at the top of the Channel Gardens looking down at the sunken plaza and the gilded Prometheus. The deck above is separate and paid.

The Art Deco heart of Midtown — the sunken plaza, the flags, the tree in winter. Free to stand in.
