Poster for a Christmas Tree Festival, November 14th to December 24th, inviting people to view and vote for decorated trees to support local charities.

Until 24th December 2025, visitors can explore a spectacular display of Christmas trees, each one uniquely decorated by a local business or organisation. Every tree represents a charity, combining festive creativity with a chance to give back to the community.

You’re invited to cast your votes for your three favourite trees – whether you’re inspired by their design, the story behind them, or the cause they support. The top three trees with the most votes will each receive a cash donation for their chosen charity in the New Year, so every vote truly helps make a difference.

Voting is free and open to everyone – simply visit a white letter m on a blue backgroundMidsummer Place, soak up the Christmas atmosphere, and choose the trees that capture your heart.
