‘Tis the season to keep cozy, and the adorable chalets at Rockefeller Center offer all the snuggly vibes you could imagine.
Beginning Friday, November 1, guests can make their way into the Après Skate Chalets by Balsam Hill to enjoy snacks, spirits, and of course, the attraction’s best scenery. While there’s no word on when the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree will arrive for the 2024 season, ice skating at Rockefeller Center will kickstart the winter goodness a few weeks ahead of schedule on October 12th. Given these snuggly lil’ cottages are stationed around rink, you’ll have access to the heart of the attraction.
Up to six guests can enjoy a 40-minute chalet reservation from $45-$185, depending on dates and times. The price will include two non-alcoholic drinks per person, and additional bites and drinks can be purchased once your party is on-site. Head over to the Rockefeller Center website to book a day and time that works well for you and your crew.
We’ll admit, Midtown can feel a little hectic — especially once the end of the year rolls around. But watching the city’s most iconic holiday hotspot come to life while you set up shop in a chalet is pretty much a picture-perfect winter experience. You’ll want to make sure you’re taking advantage of the photo-worthy attraction ASAP, as they won’t be around quite as long as they were in 2023. This year, guests will have until Tuesday, December 31st to enjoy the seasonal staple.
And if the NYC winter weather predictions want to help us out ever so slightly, perhaps we can enjoy our experience with a few flurries, too. Here’s hoping, right?! We’ll catch you at a neighboring Midtown chalet this holiday season. Cheers!
