You’ll have access to the Edge, the highest observation deck in the Western Hemisphere, boasting astonishing views of the entire city.

Your evening at Peak kicks off with the first-ever Taste of Napa in NYC, where Festival Napa Valley’s partner wineries, including Trinitas Cellars, Bespoke Collection, Aloft, and Dark Matter Wines, will be on hand to pour some of their finest. Festival favorite Christina Maxwell will perform Broadway hits and jazz standards, joined by tenor Pasquale Esposito and musicians from the MET Opera Orchestra, in an Olivia Decker Power of Music concert. Afterward you’ll dine with the artists at Sky Cellar, Peak’s beautiful, glass-enclosed private dining room, famed for its elevated seasonal menus and breathtaking views.

New York Fashion Week will be in full swing, and you are personally invited to a private studio visit hosted by renowned designer Naeem Khan, where you will get an exclusive preview of his runway collection.

On September 8th you’ll have reservations at Greywind, where Chef Dan Kluger will take you on a culinary journey through his thoughtfully crafted tasting menu.
