- Story Text: Crowds gathered to celebrate the lighting of the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree in New York City on Wednesday (December 4).
The tradition dates back to December 1933, when the first tree lighting event took place. This year, the tree dazzles with over 50,000 multicolor LED lights, according to NBC.
The tree will remain lit daily from 5 a.m. to midnight through mid-January. On Christmas Eve, it will shine for 24 hours, while on New Year’s Eve, lighting will end early at 9 p.m. to accommodate the festivities in nearby Times Square, Rockefeller Center noted on its website.
