Martin Place Christmas tree

The tallest Christmas tree in NSW is decorated with more than 110,000 LED lights, a 3.4-metre colour-changing star and 330 specially created glossy baubles.

The tree’s 800 branches are dressed with 15,000 flowers representing 9 different kinds of Australian flowers: banksia, waratah, bottlebrush, wattle, eucalyptus gum flower, kangaroo paw, flannel flower, pink wax flower and white wax flower.

Listen to an audio description of the Christmas tree.

Come and enjoy our Choirs in the City program every night in December at the tree.

Wander through Martin Place and soak in the magic of Sydney Christmas.

Be entertained by a kaleidoscope of colours, decorative lights and stars every 15 minutes from 8pm to midnight.

Drop by the Pitt Street Mall Canopy of Light while you're in the city.

Take a stroll along George Street and look up to the stars on top of each light pole. The Woolworths building across from Sydney Town Hall is also draped in a curtain of light.
