MUSEUM TOURS

Attraction Pass Madame Tussauds New York
Audition for blockbuster films in front of Will Smith
at the "Movie Star Experience!" Enter the movie
studio after you try on costumes and props from the set of your
favorite flicks and read for the starring role! You'll be
immersed in a film studio complete with suspended lighting, video
cameras, sound/boom equipment. and directors chairs. Dress the
part of your favorite movie heroes and audition for the cameras
in front of a huge projection screen clad in reflective
multi-lens material.
Will Smith is the First Silicone Figure to Join
Madame Tussauds New York. Give him a squeeze - you'll find him
extremely lifelike!
Think you can handle The Chamber?
"Chamber Live! featuring the House of Wax" is Madame Tussauds' scariest
interactive attraction, featuring a figure of Paris Hilton from
her film role. Guests will be transported to the eerie town of
Ambrose, where what begins as a weekend getaway for six friends
becomes a terrifying fight for their lives. Once there, guests
are drawn into Ambrose's main attraction - Trudy's House of Wax,
which is filled with remarkably life-like wax sculptures. But as
guests will soon discover, there is a shocking reason the
exhibits look so real. Guests must find a way out of Ambrose - or become permanent additions to the HOUSE OF WAX!
Are you an American Idol ?
American Idol , the most popular show on television, has come to Times Square
Madame Tussauds as part of an authentic experience that invites
guests to feel what it is like to be a contestant on the hit show
as they audition for the show's toughest judge, "Simon."
Following their performance on the authentic show set, they brave
"Simon's" critique and actually hear what he thinks!!
"PLAY BALL!" Now is your chance to live out
your baseball fantasies as you step on the mound at Yankee
Stadium to take on Derek Jeter. With a packed stadium of die-hard
fans going wild, this is your chance to strike out one of the
game's best hitters. Ever the good sport, the figure actually
speaks to guests with comments about their pitching skills.
What Makes J.Lo Blush? She dances, she sings, she acts!
J.Lo has conquered everything with style and
attitude, but only at Madame Tussauds New York are you invited to
get up close and personal with the superstar to see what really
puts color in her cheeks as part of the "Can You Make J-Lo Blush?" experience.
Perhaps a kiss will do it, or maybe a marriage proposal - it's up to you to figure it out.
So much to choose from
We've got so many stars, you won't believe they all fit in one building.
And that's not all - no sir, no ma'am! We've got permanent themed areas and
a whole host of interactive feature experiences. We'll keep you
(and the kids) entertained all day. It's little wonder you'll be
left feeling star struck! ...

Ground Zero Museum
W Ground Zero Museum Workshop Admission (Tickets)
PLEASE NOTE: THIS MUSEUM IS NOT LOCATED AT GROUND ZERO.
We are located just 8 minutes by the "E" subway from the Ground Zero site.
Ground Zero Museum Workshop is certainly an emotional and humbling experience. It is similar to visiting the Anne Frank Museum in Holland, where the reality of what happened is not sugar coated.
There are no graphic or morbid images displayed here and the core of the collection focuses more on the recovery efforts as opposed to the tragedy of the morning of September 11.
Everything is presented tastefully and beautifully, but the history cannot be ignored, so you should be prepared for an experience much deeper than standing outside the gates at Ground Zero. Rare video footage from the recovery is also displayed on large screens, while you view the photographs remnants.
The intention of Mr. Suson's Museum Workshop is not to be a harrowing experience on the contrary, it is meant to be a beautiful and touching way to remember the fallen and those that struggled to recover them.
The only memory that most people have of that day is the sight of two towers collapsing and aerial video footage of Ground Zero seen on the news.
Tour Includes:
25-Minute Rare Video of The Recovery on Large Screen Surround Sound
A Discussion About Working at Ground Zero
Ground Zero Question Answer Session Walk through & Explanation/History of Mr. Suson's Most Notable Images.
Ground Zero Museum Workshop benefits 6 FDNY and 9/11 related charities.
In warm weather, dress light and wear comfortable shoes.
In cool weather, wear layered clothing to ensure your comfort.
