The Rockefeller Center tree was lit on Wednesday, December 4, 2019, and will remain lit into the new year. It is a symbol of the true essence of Christmas in New York City. It is also a great spot to meet with old friends, reminisce, and catch the Christmas spirit. MurphGuide is here to help you find bars near the Rockefeller tree, which is located in front of 30 Rockefeller Plaza between 49th & 50th St. and between Fifth & Sixth Ave.
Here are some bars in the area, if you are meeting friends before or after seeing the tree.
Holiday cheers! – Murph.
