About this event

Set to Tschaikovsky’s luminous score, The Nutcracker carries audiences alongside young Marie through a dreamlike world of mischievous mice, swirling snow, and glittering confections from around the world. Featuring a breathtaking Christmas tree that rises before your eyes, and an atmosphere unlike anything else in the city, this enduring classic remains one of New York City Ballet’s most beloved traditions.
