Christmas Tree Festival

Experience York Minster’s popular Christmas Tree Festival, set inside the medieval Minster, with 70 trees on display in the cathedral’s stunning Nave, Chapter House and Lady Chapel.

Explore the trees, which will be decorated to individual themes by local businesses, schools and charities, and add your own Christmas message to a tag on the festival’s prayer trees.

The festival will open on Saturday 29 November at 10am with a light switch-on at ‘Minster Mash-Up’, York Minster’s special service for children and families.

The festival will run during general admission times until Monday 5 January. Entry is free with general admission. York Minster will be open for sightseeing throughout November and December but, as a living church, may need to close from time to time for services and events. Please check the website for opening times and to book admission tickets.
