It's almost time to light the Upper West Side's holiday tree and welcome the holiday season in Lincoln Square with everyone's favorite annual tradition: Winter's Eve at Lincoln Square. With Monday, November 27 right around the corner, it's time to start planning how you'll enjoy New York's largest holiday festival. 
 
Head over to our official Winter's Eve website, www.winterseve.nyc, and check out all of the talented entertainment and great family fun lined-up for the evening.
