The Rooftop at Pier 17 sits five stories above the East River, offering some of the most iconic views in the city. Known for its dynamic programming and sweeping open-air layout, it has become one of New York's top outdoor concert venues. The space hosts a wide range of events, from headline tours and cultural festivals to workout classes. The lineup spans over 60 acts each season, including artists like James Arthur, Barenaked Ladies, Pink Martini, and the ever-popular NYC Reggae Fest.

Designed to support both casual and elevated experiences, the rooftop includes turf lounges, fireplace seating, private cabanas, and branded zones like the Chase Sapphire Lounge and Patrón Patio.
