Why see Radio City Christmas Spectacular?
Showcasing the the world famous Radio City Rockettes at the most magical time of the year, without you needing to go to New York!
The Rockettes follow up their successful 85th anniversary revamp with their stunning technological enhancements and new show-stopping Rockettes performances. In this multi-themed production, the Rockettes will perform in countless scenes including The Nutcracker, The Nativity, as marching tin soldiers, glamorous reindeer and will welcome a very special gentleman to the stage!
In addition to the annual New York production, this touring version is presented in theaters throughout the United States. The first Christmas Spectacular outside of Radio City was presented in Branson, Missouri at the Grand Palace Theatre in 1994; coming home as it were, as the The Rockettes were originally called the Missouri Rockets! The successful show launched a national tour the following year. The original touring show ran from 1994 to 2003. In 2008, a new tour comprising the 2007 edition launched to wide acclaim.
In 2012 the Rockettes celebrated 85 years since the first version was presented at Radio City in 1933, and is treasured as a New York Christmas tradition, seen by more than a million visitors a year.

Need to make a few changes
The Rockettes were amazing as usual and I absolutely love the show but some things could change. Bring back the 3D beginning that was amazing sad to see they didn’t do it this year. Also they need to add one more segment for the kids. Used to go to the show every year but haven’t been since Covid until this year. I seem to remember the North Pole segment being bigger and much brighter. If they have to remove a segment to add another kids segment I would remove the multiple Santa segment. Can’t wait to see it again next year. ... Read more

Words can not describe!
I'am 16 years old and, to my full honesty the show
was simply superb! My friends told me that my
parents will enjoy the show but as to me I'll be
bored. Well, they were wrong! It was my fist time
seeing a show in the Radio City Music Hall, and it
left me wanting more. I can surely say that I'm
coming back next year! ... Read more
