Dec. 2 in Lincoln Square.

Lincoln Center
might be one of the
most recognizable
neighborhoods in New
York City, but for one
night, it will take on the
atmosphere of a small
town.
For the 20th year, the
Lincoln Square Business
Improvement District is
throwing its Winter’s Eve
at Lincoln Square festival
and tree lighting on Dec.
2 with emcee Jawan M.
Jackson from “Ain’t Too
Proud,” Ronnie Spector
and The Ronettes, tastings
from 30 restaurants,
ice sculpting and much
more.
Lincoln Square BID
President Monica Blum
has been lighting the Lincoln
Square holiday tree
for two decades and says
that even as the event
has gotten bigger since
the days it was just a tree
lighting, the festival feels
small.
The 30-foot-tall tree,
which comes all the way
from Bliss, NY to be set
up on Wednesday morning,
is decorated with
old-fashioned silver glitter
glass ornaments (by
Wendy Addison and
Tinsel Trading) will be
lit with LED bulbs a few
minutes before 6 p.m.
The lighting kicks off
the rest of the festival,
which goes until 9 p.m.
and features dancers
from the Fusha Dance
Company and Fuákata’s
Rueda de Casino at Frey
Plaza and roaming performers
from Processional
Arts Workshop and
the Alice Farley Dance
Theater among others.
Lincoln Square’s many
restaurants will be on
site, too, to feed the thousands
expected to make
it out with bites from $1-
$4, like Bouchon Bakery,
Bluebird London, Dizzy’s
Club, BarMasa, Asiate,
Momofuku, Porter
House, Gourmet Garage
Bar Boulud, Breads Bakery,
Magnolia Bakery,
P.J. Clarke’s and Rosa
Mexicano.
