“The response to our Thanksgiving Day Parade Brunch at Jazz at Lincoln Center in Columbus Circle showed us just how much appetite there is for more elevated ways to experience New York City’s biggest holiday moments,” said Bradley Tucker, Vice President of Business Development at Dayglo Presents. “Watching families settle into the iconic Appel Room, eye-level with the floats, told us we were onto something bigger than one event. That’s exactly why partnering with Derrick and Uplyft on Holiday Sing-Along at the Rockefeller Center tree made so much sense. It’s a new idea taken to the next iconic backdrop. We’re proud to keep building new NYC holiday traditions together.”

Holiday Sing-Along anchors TrulyNewYork.com 2026 holiday lineup, which brings together dining, live entertainment and premium access to New York’s defining seasonal traditions. The season begins with Thanksgiving Day Parade events, continues through the Tree Lighting Dinner Gala in Rockefeller Center and Holiday Sing-Along, and culminates with New Year’s Eve celebrations in Times Square for the ball drop and throughout NYC .

"For 15 years, we have produced experiences around the moments that make New York unlike anywhere else in the world. Holiday Sing-Along - Rockefeller Center gives guests the chance to experience the center of the holiday season in NYC, the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree through live music, great food, shared celebration and thoughtful hospitality. We want people to leave feeling as though they didn’t simply see a New York holiday tradition, they became part of one." said Derrick Cowit, President and Executive Producer of Uplyft and founder of TrulyNewYork.com.
