NEW YORK

We couldn’t miss out the famous Christmas tree at the Rockefeller Centre in New York City. Sticking with a traditional style this native tree is 82ft tall and has over 50,000 multicoloured lights topped with a dazzling Swarovski crystal star. The holiday season has truly begun when this stunning tree is on display.

The Peninsula Hotel serves up Christmas in abundance where numerous Christmas tees are decked in festive colours and are guarded by giant, decorative nutcracker figures. Garlands of evergreens and baubles sweep down the famous stairway.

Venture into the Met Museum and be rewarded with a magnificently lit, twenty-foot blue spruce tree which looms over a vivid eighteenth-century Neapolitan Nativity scene, surrounded by an abundant array of lifelike figures with silk-robed angels hovering above.

 LONDON

In London, the Christmas tree in St Pancras International station is a modern take on tradition. In conjunction with The Princes Trust, his 33ft tree takes inspiration from the famous London skyline and features terrace houses, church yards, department stores, ferris wheels, bridges, concert venues, skyscrapers, towers and monuments. All of which is illuminated with warm and cosy festive lighting.

At Claridge’s Hotel we are treated to a magnificent sculptural creation crafted from reflective mirrors and accented with light which pulses and undulates. The brainchild of the Creative Director for Jimmy Choo, this Christmas tree is titled ‘The Diamond’ and is topped off with a glittering bow.

In Covent Garden, things are looking a bit more traditional with a show stopping 60ft British grown handpicked tree. Decorated wish 30,000 lights, it is picture perfect with a red bow and barrel base bring Christmas cheer to busy shoppers.

PARIS

The Christmas tree in La Galeries Lafayette this year is ‘out of this world’. From Elato, the Christmas tree planet, it is a spectacular tree with 11 different displays. Every 30 minutes the lights go out for a truly magical sound and light show bringing a sense of wonder to the young and old.

The Four Seasons Hotel George V Paris has extravagant festive decorations by Jeff Leatham, the famous artistic director of the hotel. A golden mirrored abstract tree sits below a beautiful chandelier and is flanked by inventive, tree shaped gold and green lights and golden cubes.

The trees along the Avenue des Champs-Elysees are decorated with sparkling lights creating a visually stunning formation the whole way to  the Arc de Triomphe. This year the holiday lights will still sparkle while cutting energy use by 44 percent.
