October Stargazing at Roof at Park South: Your Exclusive Front Row Seat to the Orionids and Draconids Meteor Showers
As the leaves turn golden and the air gets crisper, October at Roof at Park South promises an extraordinary experience that’s truly out of this world. This fall, New Yorkers have the rare opportunity to witness two incredible meteor showers—the Orionids and the Draconids—right from our rooftop bar. With unparalleled views of the night sky and the city’s skyline, Roof at Park South is the perfect venue to host your autumn event while enjoying these celestial wonders.
Why October is the Perfect Time to Host Your Event at Roof
1. The Orionids Meteor Shower The Orionids meteor shower is one of the most anticipated celestial events of the year. Active from September 26th to November 22nd, the Orionids reach their peak on the nights of October 21st and 22nd. Known for producing bright and fast-moving meteors, the Orionids offer a breathtaking show as they streak across the night sky. Imagine your guests gathered on our rooftop, drinks in hand, watching this dazzling display unfold above them—an unforgettable experience that will make your event truly special.
2. The Draconids Meteor Shower Short but sweet, the Draconids meteor shower is active from October 6th to 10th, with its peak occurring on the evening of October 7th. Unlike many other meteor showers, the Draconids are best viewed just after sunset, making them perfect for early evening events. These slow-moving meteors are easier to spot, allowing your guests to relax, enjoy the show, and perhaps even make a wish or two. Pair this with our signature cocktails and globally inspired bar bites, and you have the recipe for a perfect evening.
3. A Season of Change and Celestial Wonder October at Roof at Park South is a time of transformation—both on the ground and in the skies above. As the city transitions from summer to fall, our rooftop offers a front-row seat to this change, enhanced by the spectacular meteor showers lighting up the night. Hosting your event during this time allows your guests to experience the beauty of the season and the wonder of the cosmos in a setting that’s both chic and comfortable.
