7 Must see Christmas trees in London
With Christmas next week and only a few weeks left of the year, we have decided to collate our favourite trees around London to reflect on all the festive decorations this month.
In true Christmas spirit, we’ve taken a moment to reflect and handpick our LLW Top 7 Christmas Trees—a guide to the most enchanting trees in London to visit before or after Christmas.
The V&A | All Lit Up by the brilliant Anna Lomax is a glowing sculpture that is a spiralling column that forms the shape of a traditional Christmas tree.
Claridge’s | This tree is the epitome of elegance and creativity. Designed by Paul Smith for 2024, the tree features vibrant baubles, ribbons and over 100 birdhouses. Making this tree a vision of beauty. We even have an exclusive look at the behind-the-scenes on how these trees come about.
The Wallace Collection | Set within one of our most treasured galleries, the Christmas tree at The Wallace Collection is a masterpiece in its own right, a beautiful tree with festive interiors to die for.
The Wallace Collection The Connaught | Just steps away from Claridge’s, The Connaught offers a beautifully understated yet poetic take on the Christmas tree. Crafted by Conrad Shawcross RA, this tree showcases 90 eye-striking, bespoke lanterns, each made from aluminium and hand-painted with silver coatings (be sure to grab one of their hot chocolate’s if you have time).
The Royal Opera House | There’s something so fitting about the Royal Opera House’s Christmas tree—it’s grand, theatrical, and utterly spectacular. Designed and created by artist Hugo Dalton, the tree is sustainably made from over 45 borrowed Royal Ballet tutus and reams of recycled tulles.
Hugo Dalton Tutu tree Sketch | For those who adore a modern and quirky twist on Christmas, Sketch delivers a festive tree like no other. Designed by Mehbs Yaqub, the ‘crystal tree’ is playful, colourful, and completely unique.
Sketch St.Pancras | The Wicked-themed tree at St Pancras is a showstopper that brings a touch of Broadway magic to London. The tree Stands at an impressive 11 meters tall, covered in dazzling green and gold decorations that evoke the magical world of Oz. A promotional nod to the new Wicked adaption film in cinemas.
