Madison Square Park 2025 Holiday Tree Lighting

On December 24, 1912, Madison Square Park held the first ever public tree lighting in New York City, sparking a trend that has since reverberated throughout the country. In 2025, we continue this tradition with one of our largest trees yet, a 55-foot concolor fir in the Northern Reflecting Pool.

Enjoy this free joyful event with photo ops, and much more.

Know before you go:

• Tree lighting at approximately 5 PM.
• No stroller parking is available so please consider leaving strollers at home if possible.
• Free and open to the public, no reservations are necessary.
• Co-sponsored by Flatiron NoMad Partnership, The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad and Tous les Jours.
