I am buying a bus trip into NYC Wed.11/30 for my 20 year old daughter and her boyfriend to see Christmas Spectacular. They arrive at Bryant Park at 10:30 am and have until 4:15 until the show. They leave NYC right after the show. I would like to get them a resy to eat lunch at Rockefeller Plaza and skate. When does the tree get lit? Any suggestions for a young couple?

I think it gets lit that night.

Great but expensive lunch would be either Rock Center Cafe or The Sea Grille. Both excellent and both in Rockefeller Center.

What a GREAT mom you are!

The tree will be lit the night before.

Bryant Park also has an ice rink. There is also a nice restaurant in Bryant Park and a cafe connected to the rink. When we were there the weather was nice and we bought lunch at a very nice deli and ate at one of the tables in the park.

And there are two ice rinks in Central Park I believe.

There is nothing like skating at Rock center.The Sea grill and cafe are wonderful.Make a reservation as all the restaurants in the area will be expensive.Alfredos is a trendy Italian rest across the street but the will not have the same experience there.
