Four Present-Perfect Experiences to Give for the Holidays

Whether they have it all or say they don’t want anything at all, every person on your holiday shopping list will be thrilled to unwrap an experience that promises to be an unforgettable one. And you will be thrilled to find the perfect option for each of them at Hudson Yards.

 

1. Some Self Care Splendor

The Spa at the Equinox Hotel offers a range of wellness packages, from the Power Up Lunch (superfood meal, NutriDrip IV therapy, and a choice of cryotherapy or spa wave table; $290) to the High Performance (all of the above plus a remodeling lift facial and CBD massage; $745). Gift cards are also available.

1. Moments of Beauty

Sundays lets you pair a calming manicure (from $20) with guided meditation ($32) or nail art (+$15 for two nails). Likewise, Fellow Barber combines haircuts with shaves or facials (from $91).

3. The Ultimate Holiday Rush

Nothing rises above a trip to Edge, the highest outdoor sky deck in the Western Hemisphere ($33 for children, $38 for adults). And if the glass floor in the platform isn’t enough to push the pulse of the true thrillseekers on your list, here’s something that will: City Climb ($185), a strapped-in ascent to the crown of 30 Hudson Yards, more than 1,200 feet above ground.

4. A Night of Merry Making

Grown-up revelers will be warmed and wowed by Santa’s Secret (tickets from $45), an immersive experience that ends at a speakeasy that features a live band, themed cocktails and an eye-popping variety show—with a seasonal twist, of course.
