If you’re looking to escape the last few weeks of summer, you may not have to travel too far.
Pop in the City, a new pop-up experience, has just landed in New York’s Greely Square. Spanning a section of Broadway between 32nd and 33rd Streets, the 120-foot-long inflatable ride is inspired by the sights and sounds of New York City. It features a giant slide, a ball pit, a glittering dome filled with disco balls meant to emulate the classic Studio 54 club, and even a “Winter in the City” section filled with real snow. There are also inflatable sculptures lining the walls of the space that reference New York landmarks like pizza, skyscrapers and more.
The attraction will also feature a rotating lineup of DJs and performers who will light up the space with live entertainment, giving you another fun summer entertainment option in the heart of midtown Manhattan.
“New York has seen some pretty wild things, but we don’t think there’s ever been anything like this before,” Josh Kinnersly of event planner XL Entertainment said in a press release. “We took inspiration from the city and combined it with balls of all shapes and sizes. It’s an ode to the orb, a joy of the round. You’ll have a ball.”
Pop in the City runs until Sunday, August 28. You can get advance and scheduled tickets online herestarting at just $20, and check out some more photos below:
