Once they get through the galleries, visitors are finally whisked into the air, where they'll "soar" around NYC's landmarks (a rendering shows the Statue of Liberty) to a soundtrack with songs like Taylor Swift’s "Welcome to New York" and Frank Sinatra’s "Theme From New York." The full-motion seats will dip, turn and soar while wind, mist and scents are blown at riders' faces. While on the subway car, riders see NYC’s vibrant pop-cultural evolution through seven themed galleries- "Finance," "Skyline," "TV/Radio," "Fashion," "Music," "Broadway" and "Film"-that show off historic artifacts, star-studded memorabilia.
Eventually, a present-day subway car virtually transports guests to the galleries. Then visitors are taken to a re-creation of the city’s first subway station at City Hall circa 1904, which transforms into a fully immersive theater with visual and special effects. (The ride is similar to Disneyland's "Soarin’ Over California" experience.) The experience begins with a film by documentarians Ric Burns and James Sanders-narrated by everyone's fave actor Jeff Goldblum-that touches on NYC’s history, specifically Times Square and its global impact. RISENY places thrill-seekers inside a 180-degree, 40-foot projection dome that plays 8K aerial footage to create the sensation of flight.
