Lighting the Trafalgar Square Tree

Each year since 1947, a Christmas tree has been given to the people of London from Norway in gratitude for Britain’s support to Norway during World War II. For many Londoners the Christmas tree and carol singing in Trafalgar Square signal the beginning of the festive season, and mark the first of a series of Christmas activities held on Trafalgar Square.

Free of charge – No ticket required. Make sure to arrive early!
