Unique Holiday Themed Fun Stuff in NYC for Adults
Has anyone come across any cool and unique holiday/winter themed things to do in NYC for adults (no shows)? I've seen a few on various blogs, FB, IG, etc. but looking to see what I've missed

We do something every year in my family.
Sometimes we do a show, sometimes we do something completely different.
Some things we've all loved:
1. A cooking class at Institute for Culinary Education (ICE) - they have themed classes (steakhouse and bourbon, Christmas cookies, etc.) - it's so much fun - even for the non-cooks!
2. The Magician at the Waldorf (he's now at the Palace I believe) - Steve Cohen. Very very cool
3. Dinner at the 21 Club with Christmas Carolers.
4. The NY Pops Christmas Concert at Carnegie Hall.
5. A Christmas walking tour of Arthur Ave
6. Walking tour of Greenwich Village
7. A tour of Grand Central Station followed by drinks at the Campbell Apartment and dinner at Ciprianos

This would have been great for my niece but it's $100 for her and I would have to pay too. That's crazy!

Re: Unique Holiday Themed Fun Stuff in NYC for Adults
I really want to go to Rolf’s this year. It’s a German restaurant/bar that is over the top decorated for Christmas. Also, the igloos on top of 230 5th rooftop look really cool. I’m planning a day to see the tree in Rockefeller center & then go to Rolf’s.

The Ride is always fun. And they have a holiday edition.
I haven't done the holiday edition but have done the regular tour. I always recommend it as something different to do.

Holy cow, the prices at Rolf's are over the top as well.

Yes, I've seen both of those! The Igloos look so cool, but they hold 12 people so you have to sit with strangers unless you have that many, and a $50 spend limit (which isn't bad). Rolf's looks great also, and I've been wanting to go for years!

Try Sur La Table! A little cheaper, but you also have to pay for yourself if you want to participate

I thought this looks like fun:
Bryant Park Bumper Cars
We did the igloos last winter. It was fun!
