Huge Christmas tree returns to Liverpool as Church Street set to sparkle
Liverpool’s show-stopping Christmas tree has returned to the city centre, with the stunning 50ft landmark standing proudly on Church Street.
Liverpool Business Improvement District funds 85% of the city’s Christmas lights display - including the likes of Hope Street and Bold Street - which were switched on for the festive season last week.
Liverpool ONE and the Royal Albert Dock’s magnificent Christmas decorations are also lit up and all that’s left is the famous tree on Church Street/Parker Street.
Decorated with around 14,000 LED lights, the beautiful tree will this year be illuminated from this afternoon (November 20). The switch-on ceremony will see a tree blessing, confetti cannon and school choir between 4.30pm and 5.00pm.
Elsewhere in Liverpool city centre, you can find a giant bauble archway standing proudly on Paradise Street, a 25-metre Christmas tree, reindeer, children’s rides and food stalls in Chavasse Park, and the return of the popular Bar Hütte.
