THE ICONIC 2nd Year HOLIDAY RIDE is now on sale; avoiding last year’s Box Office hysteria which required so many added performances CEO/President Richard Humphrey’s fleet of motor coaches called out for a much earlier ON SALE HOLIDAY DATE.
Voila!
THE ICONIC 2nd Year HOLIDAY RIDE (November 20, 2013 through January 5, 2014) is now on sale; and selling briskly.
Actually, it would be fair to say the Box Office is on fire.
Preview Performances begin November 15 and continue through November 18.
THE MAGIC
CEO/President, Richard Humphrey, has conceived, developed, designed, directed and produced the absolutely most sparkling theatrical vehicles imaginable to escort his audiences to the Holiday Spectacular that is New York during the Holiday Season; the glorious CITY OF LIGHTS celebrating the glorious celestial lights of Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanza. New York, when in the full blaze of its several billion holiday lights, is best seen from the city’s most acclaimed phenomenon; THE ICONIC 2nd YEAR HOLIDAY RIDE.
THE ICONIC JOY
The electric wizardry of New York’s Holiday brilliance is only eclipsed by the stars in the winter skies and the sparks of joy from within THE RIDE’S four Iconic Holiday Motor Coaches.
THE ICONIC 2nd YEAR HOLIDAY RIDE
THE ICONIC 2nd YEAR HOLIDAY RIDE presents New York City during its favorite time of year with a custom designed exterior wrap, a new 4.2 mile route highlighting the finest of New York’s iconic decorations and locations, new content, new seasonal videos, a dedicated soundtrack, additional cast members and especially choreographed performance events.
THE 150,000 RIDER
During the later part of THE ICONIC 2nd Year HOLIDAY RIDE’S schedule the 150,000 RIDER will board one of the unanimously acclaimed motor coaches that are now being described as the most exciting interactive theatres in the world.
The 150,000 rider!
THE BRAGGING RIGHTS
THE RIDE has played twenty-seven months of sold-out, multi-million-dollar, state-of-the-art, electronically interactive tours of the Midtown Area of the Greatest City in the World. Over 74,800 very happy customers have supported the 4.2-mile journey that has been termed “a Passport to New York City.”
THE CELEBRATED MOTOR COACHES
There are four of them. Together they make up New York’s spectacular fleet of traveling theatres created for group exhilaration and audience participation. An audience, which in this case, happens to be the hundreds of people on the streets of mid-town Manhattan. THE RIDE was inaugurated on OCTOBER 11, 2010 to across-the-board critical acclaim. On May 3, 2012 CEO/President Richard Humphrey launched THE RIDE’S Second Season with the introduction of THE Fazzino RIDE, several new motor coaches, a new cast, new themes, new management and a new Box Office located at Madame Tussauds on 42nd Street in Times Square. More across-the-board critical acclaim. More added performances. The motor coaches are events in their own right. They are specifically designed theatrical vehicles; the tallest allowed by federal law, fitted with stadium-style seating that orients the 49 fortunate participants sideways so as to look through the massive windows that deliver New York as the most successful Broadway show on earth. These multi-million dollar coaches are equipped with surround sound, 3,000 LED lights and 40 video screens. They are, in essence, rolling state-of-the-art theatres that introduce their travelling audiences to an interactive experience that only the most interactive city in the western hemisphere could deliver. Each motor coach’s external speakers and lighting allow riders and on-board performers to interact with THE RIDE’S street performers as well as anyone else they pass on the street.
ABOUT THE RIDE
Los Angels hosts The Universal Studios Hollywood Tour. Leavesden, England just opened Warner Brothers’ The Making of Harry Potter Tour. New York City owns THE RIDE, which has become the singularly most requested ticket at Travel Agents’ offices all over the country. The concept is a brainstorm of design that has resulted in a fleet of multi-million dollar motor coaches whose interiors are a state-of-the-art wonderland of electronic wizardry that guide 49 dazzled tourists around the most fascinating city in the world. THE RIDE’S original genius was its realization that the streets of Manhattan are a fifty-mile stage exhibiting the most riveting visuals on earth. Adding its own actors to the crowded mix on the street, the huge motor coaches deliver a show worthy of the standing ovations and group euphoria that results at the end of each RIDE.
