What is the definitive guide to the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree experience by Mommy Poppins?

Visiting the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center is a must-do experience for both New York City locals and visitors. Here's a quick guide from Mommy Poppins:

• The tree arrives on December 9, a Norway Spruce from Massachusetts.
• It's decorated with over 50,000 lights starting from November 9.
• The tree lighting ceremony takes place on December 4.
• From December 5 to mid-January, the tree is lit daily from 5am until midnight.
• On December 24, the tree is lit for a special 24-hour period.
• Throughout the holiday season, you can enjoy food vendors, live performances, and ice skating.
• You can view the tree from 70 floors up at Rockefeller Center’s indoor and outdoor observation decks and via The Beam, Skylift, and more.
