On December- Lighting of the World's Largest Hanukkah Menorah
Celebrate Hanukkah with the lighting of the world's largest menorah at Fifth Avenue and 59th Street (right in front of the Plaza Hotel). This 32-foot-high, gold-colored, 4,000-pound steel holiday icon is a sight to behold. Every evening during the holiday, a candle will be lit. A rival World's Largest Menorah sits across the river, in Brooklyn's Grand Army Plaza (at the head of Prospect Park).
