New York City has a variety of holiday light displays throughout the city that are typically turned on in mid-November. However, the most famous one, the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree, is lit on a special day in November, usually the day after Thanksgiving. This year, the tree will be lit on November 28, 2023. Other notable holiday lights in NYC include the Dyker Heights neighborhood in Brooklyn, which is known for its over-the-top Christmas light displays, and the Christmas market in Bryant Park, which features a winter village with hundreds of twinkling lights.
