An Exclusive Devil Wears Prada 2 Movie Sites Bus Tour Launches in NYC

New York City has always felt like one of the most central figures in The Devil Wears Prada, a regal and savvy force with impossibly cultured taste. Nearly two decades later, it's still in stilettos, starring in The Devil Wears Prada 2. With that return comes a wave of nostalgia and a chance to trace fashion’s evolution through the lens of pop culture and film, all set against a city that has never stopped being the ultimate runway.

To mark the sequel’s arrival, On Location Tours is debuting a Devil Wears Prada Movie Sites Bus Tour, an immersive journey through Manhattan tracing notable locations seen in the film. The cinematic pilgrimage has arrived in stride with the film’s nationwide release this week, offering fans a rare chance to step inside the world of RUNWAY.

The two-hour tour threads through the city’s most iconic locations from the original film, while teasing new backdrops featured in the sequel. Expect behind-the-scenes anecdotes, sharp-witted trivia, and a tone that mirrors the film’s signature blend of satire and reverence for fashion. Guests are encouraged to dress the part (think Fashion Week) transforming the experience into something more experiential than a traditional sightseeing tour.

This experience is now available for booking HERE.

Directed once again by David Frankel and written by Aline Brosh McKenna, the film reunites Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci, while introducing a new cast that includes Justin Theroux and Kenneth Branagh. It’s a reunion that once seemed unlikely (both Streep and Hathaway had long expressed uncertainty about revisiting the story) but in today’s climate, the return feels less like a sequel and more like a recalibration.

Filmed across Manhattan, Milan, and even Newark, the sequel mirrors fashion’s global sprawl while anchoring itself in New York’s enduring mystique. Cameos from industry icons like Donatella Versace and Lady Gaga blur the line between fiction and fashion reality, reinforcing the franchise’s longstanding role as both commentary and participant in the industry it portrays.

What makes this moment particularly electric isn’t just the return of cerulean monologues or impossibly chic bangs, it’s the context. The original film arrived in 2006, at the height of print media’s influence. In 2026, RUNWAY exists in a world of algorithms, brand empires, and creators who rival legacy publications in reach, as do we. The tour, much like the film itself, becomes a way of mapping that evolution onto the physical city, old figures meeting new narratives, all reframed through a contemporary lens.

For fans, the appeal is obvious, a chance to relive a defining fashion fantasy with tickets for a front row seat at a theater or a walking immersion. New York and fashion alike, evolving, adapting, and occasionally circling back sharper than ever.
