SKYLINE: The Americas Urban Highline Height Record

SKYLINE is a live record attempt in New York City, where world-class highliners will walk a line rigged 300+ metres above the ground between Edge NYC and 1 Manhattan West to establish the Americas Urban Highline Height Record, alongside interactive public activations at Hudson Yards.

The Objective

Timeline: Spring 2027

Location: Hudson Yards & Edge NYC, New York City

In partnership with Uncharted Lines, Wavelength is setting out to establish a historic milestone: the Americas Urban Highline Height Record. SKYLINE will invite the world's leading professional highliners from across the globe to successfully walk the highest urban highline ever rigged in North and South America, completing the crossing without falling onto their safety tethers.

The Line & The Spectacle

  • Record Breaking Dimensions: The proposed highline will stretch between the Edge NYC Building and 1 Manhattan West, measuring an estimated 250-300 metres in length and over 300 metres in height.
  • Iconic Backdrop: The event will provide breathtaking cinematic visuals with the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building directly in the background.
  • Day One (Public Activation): The weekend kicks off with a small scale urban highline performance inside The Vessel at Hudson Yards. A beginner friendly "SlackPark" will give the public and families a chance to safely try ground level slacklining.
  • Day Two (The Main Event): The record attempt will be livestreamed to a massive JumboTron in the designated viewing area at Hudson Yards. Meanwhile, VIP guests, project partners and production crews will watch the historic walk directly from the Edge NYC Sky Deck, the highest outdoor sky deck in the Western Hemisphere.

Unmatched Brand Engagement

SKYLINE represents a monumental experiential marketing opportunity. Beyond the record attempt, the event allows for optimal branding placements, brand partner activations at Hudson Yards, multidimensional public performances (including potential horizontal highlining meeting vertical dance) and guaranteed global digital reach.
