Christmas in New York City is just not complete without a visit to the Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall. The show-stopping production features the legendary Rockettes and a cast of colorful characters. Read on to learn how to see the Radio Christmas Spectacular.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Step1
Plan your trip. The Christmas Spectacular only shows for six weeks. This usually falls from just before Thanksgiving until December 30. Check with your ticket agent for specific dates.
Step2
Purchase your tickets. You can do this online or by calling Ticketmaster. Purchase early as these tickets sell out.
Step3
Prepare for your trip. New York City in November and December can be cold, so dress appropriately. While there is no dress code for Radio City Music Hall, they do ask that you use your best judgment.
Step4
Arrange for transportation to and from the Christmas Spectacular. Parking is an issue in the city. Make use of a limo or cab service to get you to and from your hotel.
Step5
Arrive early. You don't want to be looking for your seat as the performance begins. Christmas Spectacular shows are crowded. Plan accordingly.
Step6
Enjoy the show. This is a show well worth going to. While the production is different each year, it always spreads holiday cheer.
