Spend New Years Eve in Times Square in this exclusive Airbnb dome

Even though the iconic Times Square bullet drop will be closed to the public, it is one way to see it in person this year.

You can rent a geodesic dome through Airbnb on the Nasdaq terrace, right under the balloon for just $ 21 (in honor of 2021).

That’s right, you’ll get a panoramic view of Times Square, its broadcast events, and concerts when no one else does. The experience is so VIP that Mariah Carey, the Christmas angel herself, will welcome you to your new digs in a virtual message.

RECOMMENDED: There’s a wild new way to watch the Times Square ball drop this year

Those who book the stay will also enjoy an indoor art lounge where you can watch the celebrations, relax in a reading nook with board games, have snacks in a dining room fully stocked with Mariah’s cookies. (yes, she has her own cookies), and a dinner prepared by a private chef and a cheesecake from Junior’s.

Not only that, but guests get a $ 5,000 shopping credit to use at Fifth Avenue or Times Square stores prior to your stay, a “chest full” of NYE accessories like hats, glasses. 2021, noisemakers and more, and a piece of crystal from this year’s Waterford crystal ball design as a keepsake to take home.

Don’t feel like sleeping outside? There is a queen bed inside for sleeping.

If you are wondering what the problem is, it’s that this is a first come, first served experience, so once reservations open on December 21st, you have to be the first in line to stand a chance. to reserve it. The experience is open to two inhabitants of the same household.

You can book a dome for two from 9 a.m. on December 21 at airbnb.com.

Airbnb will make a contribution to an organization serving New York City’s frontline workers and their families in honor of the work they did this year during the pandemic.
