Standing at 125' tall, the towering presence and iconic symbol of California's biggest holiday celebration, Holiday in the Park at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, will be a gigantic Douglas fir -- the biggest Christmas tree in the world! The tree is expected to arrive at the park on October 30 from a tree farm in Oregon, traveling first by truck on Route I-5 and finally, ceremoniously delivered via Chinook helicopter into the park. Park guests will be able to enjoy this exquisitely decorated and lighted tree when Holiday in the Park kicks off on Friday, November 23.
Read the press release on PR Newswire.
The tree will feature over 1,000,000 lights, 25,000 ornaments, and 4 trim brakes.
And if you miss seeing the tree in December, never fear-- it will become part of the lift hill for Six Flags newest attraction-- Evel Knievel!
RGB, "whaddaya mean the tree's down again?"
I'd volunteer to put the star on top, but my ladder isn't quite tall enough.
Trim Brakes make good ornaments. Right Mamoosh?
After Christmas is over, maybe they could use the wood to do *something* about Roar....
Worst.GCI.Ever!
125'! Man, that's a heap o' pine! it'll make a lovely snackbar, with trims!
