How YOUR local organization or business can have its own Christmas tree at this year's Festival:

Local groups and charities can join in by having their own decorated Christmas Tree free of charge. For businesses, we ask for the small donation of ten pounds to have a tree. 
    The Festival attracts hundreds of visitors every year, and is a great way to publicize what your organization or business does. 
    If you are interested in having a tree, or would like further information, use the email address at the bottom of this message.

Arrangements for those who wish to have a Christmas Tree at the Festival:

  • Trees should be 4 to 6 feet in height
  • Please bring a small table to stand your tree on
  • Decorate your tree as you wish
  • ​Please label your tree with the name of your organization/business, and put a small box at its base to collect the votes of Festival visitors  - visitors have THREE votes, with the voting categories being: "Most Elegant", "Most Original" and "Most Fun" tree. There are prizes for each category
  • ​Trees should be put up on Thursday, 7 December, between 12.30 and 7.30pm
