DESCRIPTION:The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony for 2026 will take place on Wednesday\, December 2nd\, starting at 7 PM in Midtown Manhattan. This annual event marks the official start of the holiday season in New York City and attracts thousands of visitors who come to see the iconic tree\, decorated with over 50\,000 multicolored LED lights and topped with a dazzling Swarovski crystal star. The tree lighting is a festive celebration featuring live music\, celebrity guests\, and holiday performances.
