HUDSON YARDS

– NYC –

An invitation to a poetic journey. One that lifts you up, whisking you away to an exclusive, refreshing experience that delivers pure joy. With a unique interpretation of the hot air balloon at the foundation of the décor program, the inspiration originates from hope, dreams and opportunity for discovery. This concept was designed and engineered specifically for the entire Hudson Yards campus including The Shops & Restaurants, Vessel, Edge and offices alike.

About The Location

Hudson Yards is a major commercial development and landmark destination on Manhattan’s West Side, anchored by Vessel, the iconic honeycomb structure designed by Thomas Heatherwick that rises 150 feet with 154 interconnecting staircases. The development spans 28 acres and combines luxury retail at The Shops, world-class dining experiences, cultural institutions like The Shed, modern office spaces, and 14 acres of public plazas and gardens that create open green space in a historically industrial area. Located between 10th and 12th Avenues from West 30th to West 34th Street, Hudson Yards sits adjacent to the elevated High Line park and offers direct subway access via the extended No. 7 line, plus connections to commuter rail, the West Side Highway, and the Lincoln Tunnel. The neighborhood has transformed the Far West Side into a bustling hub for shopping, dining, art galleries, and public programming that draws both Manhattan residents and international visitors.

About The Project

Center Stage Productions created the ‘Shine Bright’ holiday light installation at Hudson Yards presented by Wells Fargo, a large-scale commercial Christmas lights and seasonal decor installation featuring over 2 million holiday lights. The project includes a 32-foot illuminated hot air balloon suspended inside The Shops’ Great Room, with additional glowing hot air balloon installations positioned throughout the Public Square and Gardens. The holiday lighting installation adorns 725 evergreen trees across the property, while 16-foot tall illuminated set pieces and cascading lights transform Vessel’s honeycomb structure into a vertical focal point. Flying Christmas tree elements and coordinated outdoor lighting create photo-worthy gathering points that reinforce Hudson Yards as a premier holiday destination for Manhattan residents and visitors.
