TW Christmas Tree Festival

Thu 10th December - Sun 13th December: From 11am to 6pm (3pm Sun)

King Charles the Martyr

Support your Friends Group and Volunteers

Not a FoGH event and not even in the park! This annual event is a display of Christmas trees, decorated by local charities and similar organisations, at King Charles the Martyr Church in London Road.

This year FoGH has a tree decorated by volunteers, which will be sold by silent auction at the end of the Festival. If you get a chance drop into King Charles to see (all) the trees and, if you can, make a bid for (or donation to) our tree.
