what happens to rockefeller christmas tree

The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree is a beloved Christmas tradition in New York City. It is a massive evergreen tree, typically a Norway Spruce, that stands tall in the heart of Manhattan. Each year, a new tree is selected and decorated with thousands of lights and other festive decor. The tree is illuminated in a grand ceremony on the day after Thanksgiving, marking the start of the holiday season in New York City. After the holidays, the tree is typically taken down and recycled.
