The 92nd Annual Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting takes place Wednesday with a star-studded lineup of presenters and performers.

While Christmas and holiday decorations have been popping up around New York City in recent weeks, none represent the start of the season and the spirit of NYC quite like the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree.

NBC is once again the official broadcaster of the 2024 Rockefeller Center Tree Lighting.

Rockefeller Center’s Christmas tree features over 50,000 multi-colored LED lights connected by approximately five miles of cable.

Kelly Clarkson will be a presenter and performer at the tree lighting for the second time.
