Running November 4, 2026 to January 4, 2027, it's the holiday tradition I steer most families toward, and this ticket also includes a self-guided holiday tour of Midtown. Early November and weekday morning shows are the cheapest and calmest, and show tickets are usually final, so lock your date first.
