The iconic Rockefeller Center Christmas tree for 2026 has been selected—a towering 76-foot Norway spruce sourced from the forests of upstate New York. This annual tradition, now in its 90th year, continues to bring holiday cheer to New York City with a freshly harvested tree each season. The selection process involves careful consideration of size, shape, and health, ensuring the tree meets the center’s signature standards. Fans of the holiday spectacle can expect the familiar lighting ceremony and festive displays once again next winter.
