Frequently Asked Questions

What's the dress code for Highwater Rooftop on July 3rd?

Stylish summer attire is the move. Think rooftop-ready — no athletic wear, flip flops, or overly casual clothing. Smart casual to going-out dress works best.

Is there a view of the Macy's fireworks from Highwater Rooftop?

The July 3rd party is the night before the fireworks, so the Macy's display isn't part of this event. That said, the venue does offer stunning skyline views that make for a great backdrop on their own. If you want the fireworks experience, check out the Highwater July 4th event.

What's included with my Highwater Rooftop ticket?

General admission gets you rooftop access and DJ entertainment. A limited number of tickets include a 3-hour select open bar — grab those early as they tend to move fast. Food and additional drinks are available for purchase.

What time should I arrive at Highwater Rooftop on July 3rd?

Doors open at 9pm. Arriving early gets you the best spot to catch the last of the sunset over the skyline before the party shifts into full gear.

Is Highwater Rooftop an indoor or outdoor venue?

Highwater is primarily an outdoor rooftop venue, so you'll be under open sky for most of the night. Dress for summer weather.

Highwater is at 120 Water Street in the Financial District. The closest subway stations are Fulton Street (2/3/4/5/A/C/J/Z) and Wall Street (2/3). Rideshare drop-off on Water Street is the easiest late-night option.
