Such a beautifully true NY landmark and actually quite large theater. Classic decor like red velvet folding seats and true orchestra seating all persist, unchanged from past decades

Enjoy the sound of the "Mighty Wurlitzer" organ, which was built especially for the theatre 65 years ago. Its pipes, which range in size from a few inches to 32 feet, are housed in 11 separate rooms.

When Radio City first opened in 1932, it was the world’s largest enclosed theatre. John D. Rockefeller, Jr. once remarked to a New Yorker reporter, “Don’t you think that it’s a lovely room?” Read more

Awesome venue, just make sure you're seeing someone who would benefit from a slightly tamer, more intimate venue than the Terminal 5s of the world. High-energy bands sometimes feel awkward here.
The Corcoran GroupDecember 17, 2011
Take a tour of this beautiful and historic music venue daily from 11am-3pm. During the holidays, you simply must go to the Christmas Spectacular…Rockettes all the way!

The theatre is huge and very busy during the Christmas season, so prepare your out of town guests! Not a bad seat in the house. Great acoustics and spacious seats.
Richard RevillaJanuary 7, 2019
Of course the Christmas Spectacular is amazing and a must see. Theater is large and acoustic is very good.
PaddyFebruary 2, 2016
Outstanding venue. Beautiful surroundings with great views and great sound. As with any American venue there was no shortage of concession stands.
L. T.October 26, 2015
Every seat is comfortable and has a good view. The staff is friendly and accommodating! They give direction without hesitation or "um, uh, I think..." Like other venues. Bravo.

Such a beautiful place inside and "The rokettes" show is absolutely fabulous - believe a frequent broadway and theatre visitor!

Get tickets here well in advance, and expect to shell out for shows; and as a pro tip, try to get orchestra seats that aren't under a balcony, since the lower ceiling can stunt the acoustics a bit. Read more
American ChristmasNovember 11, 2016
The tree at Radio City Music Hall is 72 feet tall and 25 feet wide at the base. The tree is lit with approximately 57,000 LED lights that fade from red to white. The tree is installed in one night.
Amanda NanawaOctober 16, 2018
One of the best venues in the country with amazing acoustics. Always loved watching my favorite bands perform here.
HolidayApril 14, 2017
I never miss a chance to come here. One of the city's most magnificent gifts. The glorious of 1930s architecture perfecting preserved. Amazing sound system, purchase orchestra tickets if you can.
Kisha ChandlerNovember 25, 2018
Great Christmas show for the entire family. Worth making a day of it and see the windows, St. Pat’s, FAO, and the tree.

One of the most beautiful venues in the City. The foyer is exquisite and the ladies room is so glamorous.

Stars Align! For an occasional celebrity sighting, check out the doors to the Comcast Building - across from Radio City Music Hall – where they hang out to get a smoke!

One of my favorite places to see a concert in NYC. Wipe a booger under a seat in anticipation of one of your least favorite celebrities accidentally touching it during an upcoming awards ceremony.
Billy BachmanDecember 10, 2016
Rockettes Christmas Spectacular was a really good show. We sat in the center front row of the first mezzanine and was probably one of the best places to sit.
Chip FDecember 1, 2015
Great Show, The Radio City Music Hall Rockettes were excellent. Put this on your "to do" bucket List. The Gift Shop was expensive, other than that an overall great night.

Gorgeous. Note that there is one functioning water fountain on the second floor, if you’re trying to fill a water bottle
Nancy FinneyMarch 5, 2018
Beautiful. Check out the art in the bathrooms. Worth every penny, such an inspiring venue.

This historic theatre is one of the absolute best places to experience a concert. Bands just sound better.
Bob DDecember 2, 2021
Very cool, very prestigious. A must stop. Or at least your picture taken out front.
Sara NagyDecember 17, 2015
The rockets are amazing! Get their early because the lines are nuts but they do have u moving fast.
Ruben Cisneros PerezSeptember 19, 2011
Stop by and enjoy the Rockettes show, it's totally worthy! and the best thing is that no matters if you go to NYC during summer or spring, the Christmas Rockettes Show is always available!
Kirk WoodDecember 31, 2018
Beautiful theatre on the inside. Sound is great. Went to see the Rockettes Christmas Spectacular here and had a great time.

Radio City Music Hall became the home of the NFL Draft in 2006. If you’re here for the event, do yourself a favor. Take a minute to admire Mel Kiper’s coiffure in person. It’s GLORIOUS.

The 85th Anniversary Christmas Spectacular is AMAZING! The Rockettes are classy as ever, and tickets get down to $10 on Stub Hub.
Stephen LoboscoNovember 29, 2011
I walked across this stage and was picture on their screen, larger than life. I will always love this place. Oh and they have great shows here as well. Huge plus.

Set up a tower in advance before arriving in the city! Great proximity to NBC, Central Park and Rockefeller center if your touring!
Lydia BuckiusMay 25, 2015
Must see classic rockettes during the holiday season and new spring 2015 spring spectacular! Both amazing must see shows every year!

June 6, 1985 - The Virgin Tour stops at the Radio City Music Hall for 5 shows. Performed songs include: Holiday, Into the Groove, Everybody, Lucky Star, Like a Virgin, Material Girl and more...
Sam HNovember 27, 2015
Lovely and large venue but very disorganized when it comes to letting in people. Took almost 20 minutes for me to get through and I showed up early to the show and ended up being late
eric bornemannNovember 9, 2020
Beautiful Art Deco gem of a venue- only problem is that with tight union rules you often miss out on encores.

Mid-Street Crossing! Do not cross of the corners at this particular block! There are crosswalk lines right in the middle of the block in the street, so keep an eye out!
Julie SosciaJanuary 29, 2019
A great venue for entertainment in Midtown. It's primarily known as the home of the Rockettes and the Christmas Spectacular
Brad HagerDecember 31, 2015
VERY beautiful venue, very nostalgic. I recommend seeing the Rockettes around Christmas time, it is AWESOME!!
James PittmanDecember 17, 2014
Very comfortable seating. We sat in the top deck and still had great views of the stage!
MarcOctober 2, 2011
The acrobats are amazing, scene design was great and the music fit. I really enjoyed the show a lot and would recommend it to everyone to see

Rockefeller's original plan was to build an opera house, however after the stock market crash of 1929 he changed his mind. It was the largest private building project ever undertaken in modern times.
RonniDecember 24, 2015
The show was awesome 😊 fun to watch plus you get to put on 3D glasses
Todd A WilliamsDecember 8, 2014
Saw the Christmas show and it was spectacular. The Rockettes are unbelievably talented. Great show for the kids.

Stage door tour is incredible! It gives you a behind the scenes look of everything! Pay attention when they show you how under the stage works! Really cool! http://bit.ly/K1UCV4

Spectacular place to see a show. I recommend The Rockettes.
