Shine Bright Westminster

This festive season, let's celebrate our communities

As we come together to enjoy the holidays, it's a wonderful time to spread warmth and joy within our local community - there are plenty of exciting events for everyone to take part in.  Whether you're coming to our community festive light ceremonies (more details below) or supporting local businesses, join us in making this season not just about festivities but about connecting, supporting your local community, and celebrating the diversity that brings us all together in Westminster. 

The Trafalgar Square Christmas Tree

This year marks the 77th anniversary of the annual gift of a Christmas tree to the people of London from the City of Oslo, given as a token of gratitude for British Support to Norway during the Second World War. The tree will be in Trafalgar Square until Sunday 5 January 2025, the twelfth night of Christmas, before being recycled.
