How big is this year's tree?

It's a big one!

This year's massive 94-foot Norway Spruce hails from Oneonta, New York and according to NJ.com, it's the tallest Rockefeller Center Christmas tree since 1999 when a 100-foot tree was on display.

Crews in NYC have been hard at work for weeks prepping the tree for the big event. It's all decked out and ready to go with 45,000 lights and a 10-foot wide Swarovski star that boasts 25,000 crystals.

The lights will stay on the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree until January 7, 2017, just in case you're planning a trip to New York City.
