The 1,000th Wordle Puzzle Celebration

A grand invitation from New York Times Games. #Wordle1000 debuts on March 15th — and when the tiles turn green, the fun begins.

The New York Times is inviting solvers to join us in person or virtually for a nationwide PARTY (Wordle No. 776) inspired by past Wordle solutions. Whether you’ve got a daily Wordle group chat, or you’ve never played before – solve the 1,000th Wordle for special treats and experiences (while they last) at a number of locations.

The celebration will start at the Empire State Building and its iconic SPIRE, which will light up in Wordle’s signature colors as the 1,000th puzzle is published. The first solvers on the 86th Floor will receive a gift, while supplies last.

Additional offerings include:

• A free BAGEL (Wordle No. 706) to start your morning at any Tompkins Square Bagels location.
• A discounted New York Times Bestseller STORY (Wordle No. 318) at The Strand in Union Square.
• A little extra HUMOR (Wordle No. 236) in your week, with the help of Caveat and Littlefield.
• A limited-edition green and yellow DONUT (Wordle No. 749) at Peter Pan Donut & Pastry Shop.

• An afternoon crunch on CRUST (Wordle No. 24), with a free slice at all Joe’s Pizza locations (N.Y., Miami, Fla. Ann Arbor, Mich., Cambridge, Mass.).
