Wall Street celebrates the holidays, too, with a public Christmas tree lighting at the New York Stock Exchange.
What to expect
Visitors and neighbors gather outside the New York Stock Exchange for a public holiday celebration. The program includes live music and activities from participating companies.
Performers and offerings change each year. I’d leave some time to enjoy the accompanying program.
Good to know
I’d arrive before the celebration starts so you have time to find a spot.
Warm shoes and gloves are useful, especially if you plan to stay for a while.
If you’re visiting with a group, agree on a meeting point in case you lose sight of each other.
