The Kyiv City Military Administration has decided on the date for the installation of the country's main Christmas tree. It will be set up on the territory of St Sophia's Square.

When will the Christmas tree be set up in Kyiv?

The country's main Christmas tree will be set up on St Sophia Square in Kyiv on 2 December 2024. It will stand until 10 January inclusive.

According to the administration, the Christmas tree will be installed exclusively at the expense of patrons, without the involvement of budget funds. Photo zones, two souvenir shops and modular toilet cubicles will also be set up on St Sophia's Square.

Official opening of the Christmas tree in Kyiv

According to Mayor Vitali Klitschko, the Christmas tree will be assembled on 2 December, and the official opening is scheduled for St Nicholas Day, 6 December. Global Decor will be responsible for setting up and dismantling the country's main New Year's symbol. No funds will be allocated from the capital's budget for this, Klitschko stressed.

New Year's holidays in Kyiv will be held without mass gatherings, fairs and entertainment.

The KCSA added that all business entities were advised to refrain from holding mass events in open locations during the New Year holidays. In the case of organising holidays indoors, it is recommended to adhere to the regime of limiting electricity savings, safety measures and take into account the need for shelter.
