Entering

ONLINE ENTRY FOR 2025 IS NOW OPEN

Any local individual, organisation, group or business is welcome to enter a tree into the Festival and entry is free of charge. There are also special prizes for junior entrants, so the kids can make their own tree too. So get your creative juices flowing and your thinking caps on and start planning your tree now.

Although the majority of the entries for the festival are based on a Christmas Tree, other festive entries and displays are welcomed. For guidance on non-tree display formats please contact our Entries Coordinator Linda Salmon on salmonlinda978@gmail.com.

This year opening times on Saturday have been extended to 8pm to allow people to enjoy the trees after dark in the glow of the fairy lights. The Festival will close with the much loved Carols with Chris Singalong on Sunday evening. The admission price remains at £3.50 for adults and no charge for children under 16 and the Festival will open from 10am to 8pm on Saturday and 10am to 6.30pm on Sunday (last admission 30 minutes before closing).

On the entry form you will be asked to indicate at what time you will be bringing your tree into church on either Thursday or Friday morning. This is so that there will not be too many people decorating their trees at the same time.

Entries will close on Friday 6 December.
