The Hitchin Christmas Tree Festival 2025

Held every year since 1997 in Holy Saviour Church during the second weekend in December, the Hitchin Christmas Tree Festival is believed to be the oldest established Christmas Tree Festival in Britain.

Around 50 trees are displayed, each decorated by an individual, school, family, local group or business to illustrate a theme of their choice. The effect in this beautiful Butterfield church is magical. Live music is featured throughout the weekend, and hot and cold lunches and teas are served in the adjacent hall. We expect to welcome over 2,000 visitors over the Festival weekend.

Times of Opening:

12th December 2.30pm – 6pm

13th and 14th December 12noon – 6pm

Admission £5.00 (Children free)
