Dolly Parton, Dan+Shay, Brett Eldredge To Appear On NBC’s ‘Christmas In Rockefeller Center’ Special

November 20, 2020/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Dolly Parton, Dan + Shay, and Brett Eldredge are among the artists who will take the stage on NBC’s Christmas in Rockefeller Center special on Wednesday, Dec. 2 at 8-10 p.m. ET. Also performing on the annual holiday special will be Kelly Clarkson, Goo Goo Dolls, Earth, Wind & Fire, Jimmy Fallon, Tori Kelly, Leslie Odom Jr., Pentatonix, Gwen Stefani and Meghan Trainor.

The evening includes a special holiday treat with Clarkson and Eldredge performing together, along with duets featuring Parton and Fallon, and Trainor and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame supergroup Earth, Wind & Fire. The cast from the Tony Award-winning hit “Ain’t Too Proud” will also perform a musical number, and the Radio City Rockettes will also make an appearance.

“Every year our viewers look forward to NBC’s iconic tree-lighting ceremony,” said Doug Vaughan, Executive Vice President, Special Programs, NBC Entertainment. “There’s something special about kicking off the holiday season with such an awe-inspiring event.”

At key moments throughout the night, viewers will have the opportunity to donate to Red Nose Day in support of children and families facing hunger and food insecurity this holiday season. In the U.S. alone, an estimated 1 in 4 children in the U.S., or around 18 million, have faced food insecurity in 2020 and may not know where their next meal will come from – an issue that has been significantly worsened by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Money raised during the broadcast will support programs providing meals to children and families as well as helping to address child hunger and long-term food insecurity both domestically and internationally.
