when does the christmas tree in new york come down

The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree is typically taken down on January 6th, which is known as Epiphany or Three Kings' Day. The date is significant in the Christian tradition, marking the end of the Christmas season and the start of the Epiphany season. The tree is removed in a respectful and safe manner, with the ornaments and lights carefully removed and stored until the next year. The tree is then sent to a recycling facility where it is turned into mulch, which is used for gardening and landscaping projects.
