We are happy to announce a new feature we recently launched, HotSpots
HotSpots are glowing lights that indicate what's UpNext in the city. These lights show events, new openings, festivals, and much more. Now you can visually see what's happening in the city.
Event Legend (on the right):
Blue = Nightlife
Red = Food/Dining
Purple = shopping
We will be adding more categories soon.
Click on any HotSpot to get more information about that event. Or you can click on the "What's UpNext" button on the top right and see the HotSpots in a list.

2D vs 3D
Since the focus of UpNext is a 3D cityscape of New York, we spend most of our time working on the 3D aspects of the site. Recently, we took a step back and re-examined the 2D features on our site. We saw some places where we were lacking and made some big improvements. So we give you...
The 2D Pop Up Window
(we are taking suggestions for a better name is you have any)
(we are taking suggestions for a better name is you have any)
We made some significant improvement to the 2D pop up window on the map. The text is much bigger. The window has much more functionally, allowing users to do more directly on the map. For instance...
Adding Favorites and Review is easier
From top to bottom:- Star ratings from reviews
- Read/Add Reviews button for easy review management.
- Add favorites with one click.
Better Building Directories
Find any business in any building in a snap.
The new Building Directory is easy to navigate and lets you see all businesses in one page.
We have some exciting new features that are almost ready for your eyes. Keep checking back with us. Also, keep sending us feedback to general [a t] upnext [d o t] com. We love to hear from our users and many of these changes are directly the result of users telling us what they want.
