The Radio City Christmas Spectacular, starring the world-famous Rockettes, has become America's number-one holiday show over its storied 77-year history. This multifaceted show includes dynamic Rockette performances that showcase the dancers' signature precision dance style. Traditional fan favorites such as the "Living Nativity" scene and "Parade of the Wooden Soldiers," which have been in the show since its inception in 1933, remain a vital part of the show's core. Originally performed as a holiday "gift" between movie screenings, the Christmas Spectacular has long since become the main event, drawing millions of people annually to stage productions across the country.
