Ride of Fame, Interactive museum in Times Square, New York City, United States

The Ride of Fame features permanent decals of notable personalities on red double-decker buses circulating through Manhattan streets.

The inaugural ceremony on May 4, 2010 honored Emmy Award winner Rachael Ray, who led 50 fans on a tour atop the dedicated bus.

Each honoree receives a personalized decal on the front of a tour bus, creating mobile monuments that celebrate their contributions to New York City.

Ceremonies for new inductees typically occur at Pier 78 on the Hudson River, with additional locations including Times Square and Central Park.

The initiative expanded beyond New York City in 2014 when baseball player Jeff Conine received recognition in Miami, marking its first out-of-state induction.
