The holidays just got a little warmer — and a whole lot more country. 🎄 BREAKING — Miranda Lambert’s TO HOST 2025 “CHRISTMAS IN ROCKEFELLER CENTER” 🎶✨ — marking the first time the Texas-born superstar will lead one of America’s most treasured holiday events. And for millions of fans, it feels like a perfect match between country soul and city sparkle.
Lambert, known for her powerful storytelling and emotional authenticity, has spent two decades giving voice to the real, raw, and resilient spirit of country music.

For many, Miranda represents more than a chart-topping artist; she’s a reminder of honesty and heart in an era of noise and flash. And now, that same sincerity will grace the stage at Rockefeller Center, where millions of viewers tune in every year for the lighting of the 80-foot-tall tree and performances that capture the essence of the season.
Lambert is expected to deliver a mix of beloved Christmas standards and country-flavored renditions that reflect her signature warmth and grit. Imagine the glow of the city skyline, snowflakes drifting through the air, and Miranda’s unmistakable voice carrying “Silent Night” or “Blue Christmas” through the cold December night — it’s the kind of moment that makes time pause.
In her own words, Lambert shared, “New York in December feels alive. This isn’t just about lighting a tree — it’s about lighting hearts.” That simple sentiment captures what she’s always done best: turn music into connection.
The live broadcast airs Wednesday, December 3 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock, promising an evening where tradition meets authenticity — and where one of country’s brightest stars brings a little Southern warmth to the heart of New York City.
