Massachusetts Norway Spruce Selected as 2024 Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree

The 74-foot tree will be cut and transported to New York City, where it will be lit in a ceremony on December 4.

The tree, a 70-year-old Norway spruce from West Stockbridge, Massachusetts, was chosen by Rockefeller Center's head gardener, Erik Pauze, who discovered it in 2020.
This is the first time since 1959 that the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree has been sourced from Massachusetts.
The tree will be adorned with over 50,000 LED lights and topped with a Swarovski star weighing roughly 900 pounds.
After the holiday season, the tree will be milled into lumber and donated to Habitat for Humanity.
The annual tree lighting ceremony will be broadcast live on December 4, marking the start of the holiday season at Rockefeller Center.
