New York Virtual New Year Market
A city holiday market in your browser
A 3D New Year market in a small park in the middle of Midtown, surrounded by lit towers. Open it on a phone or a computer, with nothing to install, and start walking.
Snow falls through the blue hour, skaters circle the rink and a tall tree glows with red and gold baubles in front of a stone library.
What is in the park
Rows of green cabins with glass fronts, a few red-roofed ones and small greenhouse kiosks, all dressed with garlands, red bows and warm lights. Zig-zag string lights hang over the lanes between them.
East of the rink stand two striped round tents, a golden round pavilion and a glass room; the market hall sits on the south lawn. Yellow cabs wait on the avenues around the park.
Stalls and makers
The cabins are for makers and small businesses. Click one to see who is behind it and, where they have a website, go straight to it. The directory and the park map take you to any stall.
Businesses that want a cabin can reach us through the sponsor link on any empty stall.
How to get around
On a computer, walk with WASD or the arrow keys, drag to look around and click the ground to walk there. On a phone, use the joystick in the bottom-left corner and swipe to look.
Fly the drone over the park, open the postcard views, or use photo mode to save a picture.
