The first Rockefeller Christmas Tree was a modest 20-foot-tall balsam fir, but over the years, the tree has grown to be as tall as 100 feet. The tradition of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree has become a beloved holiday tradition for many Americans. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Selection_Process\"><\/span>The Selection Process<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p> Each year, the Rockefeller Center selects a tree from an area within a 100-mile radius of New York City. The tree must be at least 65 feet tall and must have a full shape. The selection process involves a team of experts who scout for the perfect tree months in advance. Once the tree is chosen, it is carefully cut down and transported to Rockefeller Center, where it is decorated with thousands of lights and ornaments. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Lighting_Ceremony\"><\/span>The Lighting Ceremony<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p> The Rockefeller Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony is a highly anticipated event that takes place in late November. The ceremony features live performances from popular musicians and celebrities, and the tree is lit for the first time at the end of the event. The lighting of the tree is broadcasted live on television and is watched by millions of people from around the world. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Trees_Afterlife\"><\/span>The Tree&#8217;s Afterlife<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p> After the holiday season is over, the Rockefeller Christmas Tree is donated to Habitat for Humanity. The tree is then milled into lumber, which is used to build homes for those in need. This unique and eco-friendly way of disposing of the tree has helped to make the Rockefeller Christmas Tree a sustainable holiday tradition. <\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Questions_and_Answers\"><\/span>Questions and Answers:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Q: How tall does the Rockefeller Christmas Tree have to be?<\/p>\n<p>A: The tree must be at least 65 feet tall.<\/p>\n<p>Q: What happens to the tree after the holiday season?<\/p>\n<p>A: The tree is donated to Habitat for Humanity and is milled into lumber for building homes.<\/p>\n<p>Q: When is the Rockefeller Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony?<\/p>\n<p>A: The ceremony takes place in late November.<\/p>\n<p>Q: What is the history of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree?<\/p>\n<p>A: The tradition started in 1933 with a 20-foot-tall balsam fir and has grown to be one of the most beloved holiday traditions in America.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<section>\n<aside><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Rockefeller Center Christmas tree has arrived in NYC\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/lp-cms-production.imgix.net\/2020-11\/Rockefeller Christmas Tree.jpg?auto=format&amp;fit=crop&amp;sharp=10&amp;vib=20&amp;ixlib=react-8.6.4&amp;w=850&amp;q=20&amp;dpr=5\" width=\"100%\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;margin-bottom: 8px;\" \/><small>Source: <i>www.lonelyplanet.com<\/i><\/small><\/aside>\n<aside><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Rockefeller Christmas Tree 201617 Top 10 Facts\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/loving-newyork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Rockefeller-Center-Christmas-Tree-161103163843001.jpeg\" width=\"100%\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;margin-bottom: 8px;\" \/><small>Source: <i>loving-newyork.com<\/i><\/small><\/aside>\n<aside><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"All About the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.tripsavvy.com\/thmb\/NhLU_QkwZnL3h9My0_h7DNsPGv8=\/2129x1411\/filters:fill(auto,1)\/10149427-56a3ff2f3df78cf772804afa.jpg\" width=\"100%\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;margin-bottom: 8px;\" \/><small>Source: <i>www.tripsavvy.com<\/i><\/small><\/aside>\n<aside><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting (29th November, 2017) Days\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.daysoftheyear.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/fit=cover%2Cf=auto%2Conerror=redirect%2Cwidth=867%2Cheight=488\/wp-content\/uploads\/rockefeller-center-christmas-tree-lighting.jpg\" width=\"100%\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;margin-bottom: 8px;\" \/><small>Source: <i>www.daysoftheyear.com<\/i><\/small><\/aside>\n<aside><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree is an iconic symbol of the\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.thevintagenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Rockefeller_Center_Christmas_Tree_03.jpg\" width=\"100%\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;margin-bottom: 8px;\" \/><small>Source: <i>www.thevintagenews.com<\/i><\/small><\/aside>\n<aside><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"What Happened to the Rockefeller Christmas Tree\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/townsquare.media\/site\/39\/files\/2020\/11\/125094379_3682994135054892_5420252207719774019_o.jpg?w=1200&amp;h=0&amp;zc=1&amp;s=0&amp;a=t&amp;q=89\" width=\"100%\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;margin-bottom: 8px;\" \/><small>Source: <i>943thepoint.com<\/i><\/small><\/aside>\n<aside><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony How to Watch\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/static.billboard.com\/files\/media\/Rockefeller-Center-Christmas-Tree-2017-billboard-1548-compressed.jpg\" width=\"100%\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;margin-bottom: 8px;\" \/><small>Source: <i>www.billboard.com<\/i><\/small><\/aside>\n<aside><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"This Year\u2019s Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Has Officially Been\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/s.yimg.com\/uu\/api\/res\/1.2\/8kMS8cEyj_fZ9MHlem7PPQ--~B\/aD05MTQ7dz02Nzg7c209MTthcHBpZD15dGFjaHlvbg--\/https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/people_218\/543a2507c520bf83693b58282a75bdc3\" width=\"100%\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;margin-bottom: 8px;\" \/><small>Source: <i>www.yahoo.com<\/i><\/small><\/aside>\n<\/section>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Rockefeller Christmas Tree 201617 Top 10 Facts from loving-newyork.com The History of the Rockefeller Christmas Tree Since 1933, the Rockefeller Center has been the home of one of the most iconic Christmas trees in the world.
