Beverley Minster set to sparkle with return of spectacular Christmas Tree Festival
Beverley Minster will be transformed into a festive wonderland this December as its much-loved Christmas Tree Festival returns, bringing colour, creativity and Christmas magic to the heart of the town.
Running from Friday, December 4, to Sunday, December 13, the festival will see an incredible 150 individually decorated real fir trees fill the historic medieval Minster, creating a dazzling display for visitors of all ages.
Each tree has been decorated by local groups, schools and organisations, with visitors invited to wander through the Minster and admire the imaginative designs and festive displays. The event celebrates the creativity and community spirit of Beverley and the surrounding area, while filling the ancient building with the unmistakable scent of Christmas.
Families will also be able to enjoy a number of festive attractions, including charming hand-crafted reindeer and a wooden sleigh, providing the perfect backdrop for Christmas photographs.
Younger visitors can get involved with a special children’s activity book and quiz, helping to keep them entertained as they explore the spectacular collection of trees.
And no Christmas outing would be complete without a seasonal treat. Visitors can warm up with hot chocolate, mulled wine or Baileys, alongside gingerbread men and traditional mince pies.
The festival’s final day coincides with Beverley Festival of Christmas on Sunday, December 13, giving visitors a last opportunity to experience the magical display while enjoying the town’s festive celebrations.
Doors open at 10am, with last entry at 4pm. Admission is £6 for adults, while accompanied children can enter free of charge.
With 150 real Christmas trees, wonderful community creations and plenty of festive treats, Beverley Minster’s Christmas Tree Festival promises to be a memorable way to celebrate the season.
