Bring it on, Christmas!


Holiday shopping season has began! That being said, what better place to go to than Bryant Park? That’s right - along with free ice-skating, they also have a variety of holiday shops and food set up! This winter wonderland features 125 boutique-style shops featuring clothing, jewelry, decorative goods, and even local foods! Their hours Monday through Friday are 11AM to 8PM, Saturdays are 10AM to 9PM, and Sundays 10AM to 6PM. To get there, just take the F train straight to 42nd Street/Bryant Park!

It’s Rockefeller Center time! That’s right, the tree has to be lit yet again this year – so if you’re out of town, don’t miss it! Join in the tens of thousands that will be crowding the sidewalks on Wednesday, December 4th to witness one of the most popular and iconic events of the Christmas season not only in New York City, but across the globe. To get there, just take the F train to 47-50 Streets/Rockefeller Center. The event is from 7PM to 9PM, but you might want to be a little early to get a  good spot. Don’t forget to dress warm!


Sick of the Bryant Park scene? Not a problem! If you’re looking for a change of pace during your hunt for the perfect Christmas gift, head over to Columbus Circle for their Holiday Market! On Tuesday, December 3rd, stop by and navigate your way through more than 100 different shops and vendors featuring handmade clothes, food, and much more! It opens on December 3rd through December 24th, and hours are from 10AM to 8PM Monday through Saturday, and 10AM to 7PM on Sundays. To get there, take the E to 7th Ave/53rd Street and transfer to the B train right to 59th Street/Columbus Circle. Don’t forget some cash!
