A holiday spectacle unlike any other returns for its fourth year, beginning Thanksgiving Day, this Thursday, November 24.

Shown on the state-of-the-art Comcast Experience HD Video Wall at The Comcast Center — at 2,100 square feet the largest four-millimeter LED screen in the world — the spectacle includes stunning imagery and audio.

From Thanksgiving through New Year’s Day, the Spectacular will run from 10 a.m.–8 p.m. (except 5 p.m. on weekdays) every hour on the hour, seven days per week. The show lasts approximately 15 minutes.

This year Comcast is particularly excited about new and enchanting scenes from George Balanchine’s “The Nutcracker” performed by the renowned Pennsylvania Ballet, filmed this past October. The scenes provide a great first-hand glimpse into the beauty and grace of the dancers and their exquisite costumes in this holiday favorite.

The 2011 Comcast Holiday Spectacular will also have additional updated scenes, plus everyone’s favorite magical sleigh ride through the snow covered Pennsylvania countryside, the majestic sounds of a 64-piece orchestra and more.

You really have to see it to experience it (but you can get a video sneak peek right here). It’s one of the most exciting aspects of the holiday season in Philadelphia, and one that we can truly call our own.
