1. Radio City Christmas Spectacular

The Radio City Christmas Spectacular is one of those iconic NYC holiday events that people travel from all over to see. It's been part of New York tradition since 1933, and its popularity hasn't waned. From spectacular props and music to the ever-famous Rockettes, you'll be dazzled and entertained and feel quite jolly. The Radio City Christmas Spectacular takes place November 11, 2016 through January 2, 2017, so book your tickets now.

2. Bryant Park Winter Village

If you've seen any movie that takes place in New York at Christmas, you've likely seen footage of ice skaters in the park. One such destination is Bryant Park Winter Village. In addition to their giant skating rink, they also have a special holiday market area where you can grab a bite to eat, pick up some holiday gifts, or just enjoy the ambiance of the season. The holiday shops remain open through January 2, 2017, and the skating rink will be open for business through early March 2017.

3. New Year's Eve in Times Square

Whether you're in NYC or across the country, you've probably been connected to New York each December 31 as the Big Apple helps you ring in the New Year. This year, why don't you experience New Year's Eve in Times Square for yourself? Yes, it will be crowded. Yes, it will be crazy and quite cold, but it will be a night and memory you will never forget.
