Rockefeller Christmas Tree Preparations Begin

    Halloween’s over and we are rocketing straight to Christmas.

    FOX’s Monica Rix tells us the world’s most famous Christmas tree will go up soon in New York:

    Right now, the Norway spruce is sitting in a yard in Oneonta, a small city southwest of Albany, New York. It’ll be cut down on Nov. 10, arrive in Manhattan two days later.

    But it’ll take a while to decorate, it’s wrapped in more than 50,000 multi-colored LED lights and topped with a Swarovski star.

    The tree lighting ceremony, not till Nov. 30. By the way this is a decades-old tradition. The first Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting happened back in 1933.
