Christmas Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettes kicks off the 2022 holiday season in NYC, and it's one of the best things to do on Christmas. An annual tradition since 1933, the show was canceled in 2020 but returned in 2021. This classic Christmas spectacle offers tap dancers, a flying Santa Claus and, of course, the world-famous synchronized precision dancing of the Rockettes. And that's not nearly all: If New York City Ballet's beloved production of The Nutcracker doesn’t have enough onstage camels for you, this show will fulfill that need. Here’s everything you need to know about getting tickets, the 60,000 pounds of props used and just how many hours of high kicking it takes to prepare for a show.
