Description And Comments

Jimmy Fallon, the popular host of NBC's Tonight Show, has lent his name, image, and personality to this 3-D motion simulator attraction. If that all sounds good to you than you will likely love Race Through New York Starring Jimmy Fallon.

Beginning with a simple trip to the Tonight Show, guests are led on a go-kart-style ride through New York City. Guest will see the Statue of Liberty as well as the lovely sights of the subway and the East River. (Oh, and prepare to get sprayed by hopefully-not-real-East-River-water.) We don't want to ruin the ending, but we will say that it involves a trip to the moon.

The exterior facade of the attraction is a miniaturized, yet still large, version of New York's 30 Rockefeller Center (30 Rock to most). Obviously it fits in very well in the New York section of the park and we commend the sly addition of the NBC Studio Store gift shop--just like at the real 30 Rock!

Once you enter the building, you will assigned to a colored group and have a bit of time before being called to a ride vehicle. Fortunately, the waiting area is nicely done and includes Tonight Show memorabilia, couches next to phone charging ports, and live entertainment. But that means there is nearly always a wait before riding, so plan accordingly.
