The Promise of New York” invites guests into 250 years of freedom, opportunity, dreams, and reinvention — from spectators to protagonists in the city’s story.
For those ages 7+, the 45-minute tour opens on August 28th guided by Liberty, the Spirit of the Statue of Liberty, guests will set off on an adventure through the hidden stories of freedom woven into Manhattan, an immersive sightseeing entertainment experience that uses XR (Extended Reality) technology to transform a moving double-decker bus into a stage where the real streets of New York and digital storytelling unfold as one.
As the tour passes iconic Midtown landmarks such as Bryant Park, the New York Public Library, and Times Square, a series of WOW moments unfolds—from time travel to the 1880s and dazzling Broadway-inspired scenes to an interactive battle to protect freedom.
As the real streets of New York blend with the world of XR, the city itself transforms into a stage for the story. Experience a one-of-a-kind immersive XR adventure where sightseeing, history, art, and entertainment come together. During the approximately 45-minute journey, Liberty leads guests through 250 years of New York history. Iconic locations including the New York Public Library, Grand Central Terminal, Broadway, and Times Square become stages for stories of knowledge, movement, expression, dreams, individuality, and freedom. The experience also includes sequences that transport guests to the late 1800s, immersive scenes inspired by New York’s art and entertainment culture, interactive moments, and a cinematic finale above Manhattan.
XR, or extended reality, adds digital visuals to the real world rather than replacing it. You continue to see New York’s actual streets and landmarks while immersive scenes and stories appear through the headset.
