What channel is the Rockefeller Center tree lighting on? Time, actor

The official start of the Christmas season in New York is only complete when the Christmas tree is lit at Rockefeller Center.

The tradition dates back to 1933, when Rockefeller Center held the first tree lighting ceremony. Three years later, in 1936, the ice skating rink opened on the Plaza.

Here’s what you should know about this year’s tree lighting.

When will the Christmas tree be lit at Rockefeller Center?

The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting will take place on Wednesday, December 4th.

How to watch tree lighting

You can watch the tree lighting live on NBC and Peacock on Wednesday, December 4, from 8 to 10 p.m. as part of NBC’s annual Christmas at Rockefeller Center special, hosted by Kelly Clarkson. She will be joined by NBC “Today” show hosts Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb, Al Roker and Craig Melvin.

The tree will remain lit until mid-January 2025 and is decorated with more than 50,000 multi-colored LED lights and crowned with a 900-pound Swarovski star made of three million crystals and 70 points.

Where does this year’s tree come from?

This year’s spruce comes from West Stockbridge, Massachusetts. The last time a tree came from the Bay State was in 1959.

Last year’s choice was homegrown, as Rockefeller Center’s head gardener Erik Pauze selected a spruce from Vestal, New York, for the city’s 2023 holiday centerpiece.
