A Sky-High Summer Soirée: Celebrate July 4th at ART NoMad’s Riviera-Inspired Rooftop
As New Yorkers prepare to toast to the Fourth of July, ART NoMad is offering a rooftop escape to celebrate the holiday. Perched 31 stories above East 31st Street, the beloved rooftop bar at Arlo NoMad has transformed into a breezy, Riviera-inspired hideaway—just in time for Independence Day.
A Rooftop Renaissance in NoMad
The seasonal revamp of ART NoMad arrives with more than just new cocktails. The space now features a large-scale mural by artist Rey Jaffet, the creative force behind Miami’s tallest mural. At 30 by 40 feet, the piece commands attention with a kinetic, colorful figure that appears suspended mid-motion, signaling transcendence and self-expression—values that feel right at home above the city skyline.
Jaffet’s mural is a conversation starter. Framing panoramic views of the Empire State Building and beyond, the rooftop invites guests into a realm where design, art, and hospitality meet 400 feet in the air.
July 4th: A Riviera Escape in Midtown
On Friday, July 4th, ART NoMad will host an elevated rooftop party that turns red, white, and blue décor into sun-drenched luxury. Guests can expect a curated al fresco experience complete with a four-hour open bar, passed bites, and uninterrupted skyline views.
Priced at $173.38 (fees and tax included), general admission grants access to the rooftop’s signature Sky Walk—a transparent glass floor for the bold at heart—as well as exclusive cocktails crafted for the holiday.
Standouts include:
Frozen Mango Margarita:
Patrón Silver tequila, mango purée, orange liqueur, lime, tamarind rim, and tajín
The Butterfly Flirt:
Butterfly pea flower-infused Casamigos Blanco, lime, and Q Mixers ginger beer
Her Red Lipstick:
Roe & Co Irish Whiskey, Italicus, açaí, citrus mix, and vegan foam bitters
Each sip evokes vacation energy without leaving the city—exactly the point of ART NoMad’s rooftop ethos. To purchase tickets, click HERE.

Chef Michael King’s small plate menu will be available to complement the cocktails, including the decadent Arlo Lobster Roll and shareable favorites like Tahini Hummus and Vaso de Frutas. With a DJ spinning into the night and the Empire State Building lit up as your backdrop, the holiday becomes about taste—culinary and otherwise.
