This year’s Rockefeller Center Christmas tree has been selected.
It’s a Norway spruce that’s currently in West Edmeston, N.Y.
The tree is scheduled to be cut on Nov. 5. It will then be transported to New York City, arriving at Rockefeller Center two days later.
Once installed, the spruce will be decorated with more than 50,000 multi-colored, energy-efficient LED lights. The display will also feature a Swarovski star placed at the top of the tree.
The tree lighting is scheduled for Dec. 2 during the live television broadcast “Christmas in Rockefeller Center.”
The display will remain open to the public until Jan. 9, 2027, after which the tree will be milled into lumber for Habitat for Humanity.
