Nearby Trafalgar Square Christmas Tree and Carols

 
 
Trafalgar Square Christmas Tree and CarolsSince 1947, stately Trafalgar Square receives a majestic Christmas Tree as an annual gift from the people of Oslo, thanking Britain for its support and friendship during World War Two. The enormous tree is a popular seasonal tourist attraction, particularly from Tuesday 7th to Wednesday 22nd December, when each evening (from 5pm to 9pm), a different choir gathers there to sing carols and raise money for a range of voluntary or charitable organisations. All the places have been booked well in advance - applications for the 2011 Christmas program will be available from September 2011 - but passers-by are welcome to come and listen to the carols in the square, and even join in the festive cheer. Nelson's Column is decorated with Norwegian white lights and the tree is illuminated from noon until midnight until the Twelfth Night of Christmas in early January. The tree actually goes up on 29th November if you want to see it in all its naked evergreen glory. This year, the lighting of the Christmas Tree (preceded by some carols) takes place on Thursday 2nd December and the blessing of the crib on Sunday 5th December.
 

About Trafalgar Square

Lord Nelson, Britain's greatest military hero, and the mighty lions that surround him, pay testament to the position of Trafalgar Square at the heart of the capital, the heart of the nation, and, at one time, the heart of an empire that controlled three fifths of the world.
