Once heralded as the Showplace of the Nation, this famed Rockefeller Center venue has razzle-dazzled patrons since the 1930s with its elaborate Art Deco details, massive stage and theatrics. Though best known as the home of the Christmas Spectacular, which stars the high-kicking Rockettes and a full cast of nativity animals, many musicians consider the 6,000-seat theater a dream stage to perform on, including a recent extended stay from Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett. Fans can also take a guided tour to go behind the scenes of the iconic venue and meet a Rockette ($30, seniors and students $26, group rates available).
