i am arriving in the city on christmas night with my husband, 2 teenagers and my very active parents. have been many times to the city-my parents have never been over the holidays. please let me know of special activities going on the week between christmas and new years. i have been looking on other sites for ideas. thanks!

I hope to be there xmas week also. will everything be closed on xmas day?

Radio City/Rockettes Xmas show.

All Christmas decorations and activities continue right through the New Year. Rock Center tree and ice skating, department store windows at Saks, Macy's, Lord and Taylor, Bloomingdales, the tree at the Met Museum, Radio City Christmas show, Nutcracker at Lincoln Center, and the list goes on.

If you enjoy going to the theater, I'd suggest you get your theater tickets as early as possible as this is a very popular time for the theater and there are several great new shows in preview/opening.

I'd do what NYC is best known for....lots of walking, lots of good eating, lots of great theater, lots of great people watching! You'll be there during what I consider the best week of the year. I've often gone around Dec. 27-Jan 3....unfortunately, won't make it this year. Enjoy your Holidays!
