About this event
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.
Come and enjoy choirs 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 7:30pm to midnight.
Soak up even more festive cheer at the Martin Place Christmas Markets, where you can browse locally made gifts, discover handcrafted homewares and enjoy gourmet treats, open late until Christmas Eve. Visit Santa's House and step inside for a photo.
Drop by Pitt Street Mall and check out the Canopy of Light while you're in the city.
