Catch the Christmas Concert at St. John the Divine
Landmark
However, if you're lucky enough to get admitted, you'll be in for one of the best Christmas experiences in New York City.
Founded in 1892, St. John the Divine is the fifth largest church in the world. The monolithic structure’s soaring ceilings and stunning stained glass windows play host to the most beautiful Christmas concert in NYC, called “Joy of Christmas”.
I’ve been here in every season. My favorite? Fall, when the light hits just right.
The orchestra and choir envelop concert goers with Christmas carols sung in symphonic splendor. The two hour performance takes place once a year (typically mid-December), so tickets are pretty hard to score.
