There’s better from above and there’s nosebleeds. First and second mezzanine seem to be popular.

I was worried that the crowds between Christmas and New Years would be absolutely bonkers.


Oh they are. But it’s so much fun. I go every year.

It’s a really fun time to be in NYC. As for the Rockettes. I’ve seen them three times and had all different views including back balcony. It’s always better to be closer but far was fine too.

We had seats on the floor but I think the show can still be appreciated from far away since most of it is just a big chorus line and the impressive part is they're all in unison and there are so many dancers.

I wouldn't go again tbh. It was fun but a little cheesy.


Re first question-- we've gone twice to NYC during this time and really enjoyed it.

The temperature was *real* hot sitting up high. It was winter and everyone had come in with coats. If they had lowered the temperature, anyone a little cold could have put their coat back on. Instead the hot temperature was miserable. I say miserable, but all things considered, glad I went and would go again even if it were the same.

I got last minute discount tickets in the last balcony row once and enjoyed seeing it. Haven’t needed to go back.

Agree. I took my kids and mom in a wheelchair several years ago and we had so much fun. Going again next weekend (not seeing the Rocketts).

Do not go see any show that high up, it is a waste. Did it once and never again.

It will be crazy but fun. It's been years since I've seen Xmas Rockettes, but that seems a bit far back. But, if that's all you can do, just do it.

You'll have a ball. The ice skating in the park is better/cheaper than RC.

Ok NYC travel vets.

- How crazy am I for considering going to NYC the week between Christmas and New York? Two families, 3-4 tweens and young teens between.

- What seats do you recommend for the Rockettes? We’ve never been… is third mezzanine too far/impossible to see?
