Cardinal Dolan joined the Radio City Rockettes to welcome and bless the camel, sheep, and donkey starring in the “Living Nativity” scene for this year’s Christmas Spectacular. This beloved tradition, marking its tenth year with Cardinal Dolan, brings the animals to Radio City Music Hall to kick off rehearsals. Part of the production since its inception in 1933, the “Living Nativity” remains a treasured feature of New York’s holiday season.

The 2024 Christmas Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettes, presented by QVC, opens on November 8. Tickets are available at rockettes.com.
