About the Tree
This year’s tree will be adorned with 10,000 multi-colored lights, 250 multi-colored decorative balls bearing the NYSE Euronext logo, and a 6 ft. star, all supported on a 8 ft. by 10 ft. base fashioned as a holiday gift box.
A History of the New York Stock Exchange Holiday Tradition
The first NYSE holiday tree lighting took place in 1923 and has taken place annually. (Interestingly, the tree was not lit in 1973 because of the energy crisis.) Over the years, the NYSE holiday tree lighting ceremonies have grown to include participation by world-class celebrities and musicians as well as listed companies. The NYSE tree lighting ceremony is one of the oldest in New York City and the NYSE holiday tree is one of the most visited attractions during the holidays.
Media interested in covering the event must RSVP to Judy Shaw at 212-656-4290 or jshaw@nyx.com.
