Once again, the Christmas Tree Festival at St John’s Church Boxmoor approaches. The theme for 2025, “The Greatest Gift ,” invites our decorators to unleash their imaginations. We are hoping to bring the gift of Christmas joy to the wider community, with plenty of sparkle, colour and festive joy.
All are very welcome to come and see the trees. Come along and enjoy the lights in the winter darkness! There is no charge for the outdoor trees, but to view the indoor trees, the admission fee is £3 for adults and accompanied children go free.
Festival times:
Friday 12 December 10 am – 5 pm
Saturday 13 December 10 am – 5 pm
Sunday 14 December 12noon – 5pm
Monday 15 December 10 am – 5 pm
Tuesday 16 December 10 am – 5 pm
Don’t miss the popular Carols Around the Outdoor Trees, at 3.00 pm on Saturday 13th. led by the Vicar and accompanied on keyboard by Keith Beniston. With the lights twinkling in the early evening the atmosphere should be extra festive. In addition to the usual refreshments in the Hall, hot dogs and glühwein will be available from 2 to 4 pm.
The Carols Around the Trees has become part of the annual Boxmoor calendar, so do come along if you can and sing your hearts out – there is plenty of room for everyone – and you could pop inside to see the indoor trees before or after the carols! By the way, Santa promises to drop in at the end of the carol singing, with plenty of sweets for all the singers!
