St Edward's Christmas Tree Festival

The festival runs from Thursday 7th December and until Sunday 10th December, opening from 10.00 am to 5.00 pm each day.

In addition, there will be concerts on the Thursday afternoon and Saturday morning and the event closes with the final Christmas Tree Celebration service at 6.00 pm in church, where the winning trees are announced.

This year all of the 40 Christmas trees on display will be "unplugged", as unfortunately it is not possible to maintain all the electrical installations needed, owing to ill-health, but the church will be full of beautifully decorated trees with their wonderful aromas. Do come along to visit and cast your vote for your favourite trees.

We look forward to welcoming you!
