Parliament's Christmas Tree

I am pleased to be able to confirm that we have won the tender again this year to erect the Christmas tree at New Palace Yard at The Palace of Westminster and Westminster Hall.

The tree is donated by the Forestry Commission and comes from the Kielder Forest in Northumberland, a sustainable forest in which trees are grown specifically for Christmas.

It takes a weekend to erect and dress both trees.

In January the tree will be recycled and sent to be chipped and used for composting. It stands 50 ft high and is decorated with 1000 LED lights. There is a specially designed star at the top that was designed and fabricated from aluminium with LED lights inset, by us.

Here is a timelapse film of us erecting the Christmas tree on a previous occasion:
