The annual Christmas Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettes will return to the Great Stage at Radio City Music Hall November 4, 2026–January 4, 2027, offering 230 performances, the most since the show’s debut in 1933.
The 2026 engagement will feature a brand-new scene as well as new immersive technology. With the addition of the new scene, the Rockettes will now perform in 10 show-stopping numbers, including “Parade of the Wooden Soldiers,” “New York at Christmas,” “12 Days of Christmas,” and “Dance of the Frost Fairies.”
The
new technology will allow audiences to see the Rockettes’ precision closer than ever before via a variety of different
perspectives and builds upon the production’s recent innovations.

100th anniversary of the Rockettes, we are excited to step into the
dance company’s next century with the addition of a brand-new scene that
will showcase the versatility of the Rockettes while honoring the dance
traditions that are foundational to their legacy,” stated Jessica Tuttle, executive vice president, Productions for MSG Entertainment. “This
year, in addition to the new scene, fans will experience a whole new
perspective on the Christmas Spectacular, bringing them even closer to
the magic than ever before.”
