Saks Fifth Avenue Holiday Light Show

✓ Verified 2025-2026

Saks turns the entire facade of its flagship store into a canvas for music-synced light animations, running every 10 minutes in the evenings. The show returned for 2025-26 after going dark for one season as a cost-cutting measure, and it sits directly across from the Rockefeller tree.

Best time to arrive. Sunset in New York is around 4:29 PM in mid-December, fully dark by about 5:00 PM. A typical December night here bottoms out near 26°F, so dress for standing around outside.
