In 2008, the RADIO CITY CHRISTMAS SPECTACULAR® Arena Tour debuted to rave reviews in 18 cities with the launch of the largest production in the show's 77 year history. It redefined family entertainment in an Arena setting by bringing the world-famous Radio City Rockettes to cities across North America.
This year the Arena tour will expand to 31 CITIES and the Theatrical tour will return to five select markets, making it the most cities the breathtaking Christmas Spectacular has EVER toured in one season.
Every performance of the SPECTACULAR is a glittering present full of fun and surprises for the whole family! Parents enjoy the flawless precision of the Rockettes in numbers such as the legendary "Parade of the Wooden Soldiers." Children thrill as Santa takes them on a magical ride to his workshop at the North Pole, where playful rag dolls come to life! And everyone marvels at the stunning reenactment of the very first Christmas in the "Living Nativity."
Experience The Spectacular this season as the dazzling celebration of the Radio City Christmas Spectacular creates family memories that will last a lifetime!

The Christmas Spectacular in Houston was my first ever experience watching the Rockettes perform. I have to say I was totally blown away by the excellence of the whole production; from the dancers (especially) to the orchestra, the lighting, costumes and props. It's rare that one experiences something so "excellently" done, congratulations on a great 2008 tour, I look forward to watching this show again in 2009.
On Dec. 28th we saw the Christmas Spectacular in Cleveland, Ohio for the first time, my daughters and granddaughters, there were eight of us, it was so wonderful, but the ending about the birth of Jesus made the whole show just somehow so much more special. Thank You!!!!!!!!!!
I took my grandkids to see the show in Houston tonight. I was afraid I would be disappointed because I've been to the real one in NYC but was I in for a great surprise. My grandson is 15 and my granddaughter is 9 and both said the show was great. I asked them their favorite parts and they said all of it. We will definitely go again next year and tell everybody we know!
Last year I took my daughter Heather to see the Rockettes for her birthday in Des Moines Iowa. She was 37 and always loved the Rockettes, we had spent every Thanksgiving as a family watching the Macy's Parade. I was thrilled to see the dancers, beautiful costumes, and amazing sets included in the nativity, but more than all of that I watched her face, eyes sparkling, smiling in the performance. She was a little girl again even though she is the mother of two young boys herself, and I a grandmother. We are hoping to save the money to one day come again and include her sister who has moved to Texas and not able to attend that year to an expected baby. Thank you Rockettes, for sharing your wonderful talent and beauty with all of us in the Midwest
