Rockefeller Christmas Tree Lighting: How to Watch

Rockefeller Christmas Tree lighting is an iconic holiday tradition that’s been going strong since 1931. This year’s tree is a 75-foot-tall Norway Spruce from upstate New York, all decked out with 50,000 twinkling lights and a dazzling 900-pound Swarovski star.

If you’re keen to catch the magic unfolding, NBC and Peacock will be airing the live broadcast of the tree lighting on Wednesday, Dec. 3, from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. ET. The fabulous Reba McEntire will be hosting this special event, bringing her star power to the proceedings alongside musical guests like Gwen Stefani, Michael Bublé, and many more.

So grab some hot cocoa, get cozy, and tune in for a festive night full of dazzling lights and enchanting performances. It’s the perfect way to kick off the holiday season with a touch of sparkle and joy.
