Radio City Christmas Spectacular
The Radio City Rockettes are world-famous for their high kicks and candy-cane costumes. Anyone who visits NYC over the holidays should make time to watch their most beloved show of the year, the Christmas Spectacular, at the iconic Radio City Music Hall. The show combines such classic scenes as "Parade of the Wooden Soldiers" and "New York at Christmas" with new numbers and cutting-edge digital projection, which transforms Radio City Music Hall's interior into a giant canvas.

New York Botanical Garden’s Holiday Train Show
The New York Botanical Garden’s Holiday Train Show is a lesser-known exhibit if you're looking for an opportunity to escape the crowds. The Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, and Yankee Stadium are among the 150 landmarks that form the mini cityscape built from seeds, bark, leaves, and twigs. You'll watch trains ride a half-mile of track through the historic Enid A. Haupt Conservatory and maybe even be treated to a musical performance.
