New York -Students - DecemberThe Holiday season descends upon Manhattan. And lets face it, NYC knows how to do this time of year like no other. Some of the best ways to spend the season are the Radio City Christmas Spectacular, The Nutcracker, and New Years Eve in Times Square.

 

  1. Radio City Christmas Spectacular:  Come watch New York’s own Rockettes kick up their heels in style for the season!  An all new routine and flying LED screen spice up this year’s performance. See them at Radio City Music Hall, from November 7th-December 30th.
  2. The Nutcracker: Nothing captures the spirit of the season better than this timeless classic of dance. Create a wonderful memory by seeing it at the Koch Theater, November 25th – December 31st.
  3. New Years Eve!: The once in a lifetime ‘gotta do it’ event takes place again in Times Square. Join countless others to watch the glittering descent of the New Year’s Ball and remember forever where you were on December 31st, 2012.
