Fir crying out loud: share your photos of the worst Christmas trees

Like it or not, Black Friday has come and gone and with December approaching, Christmas is on the horizon. Town centres are already making the most of the season of good will, with displays abuzz with bright lights beckoning you towards 25 December.

Not all goes to plan with the festive arrangements, though. The White House this week caused consternation (not for the first time) as its crimson Christmas trees set social media users raging.

The town of Camborne, in Cornwall, has reportedly improved its “modernist” centrepiece after the 2017 effort was ridiculed as the worst Christmas tree in Britain, but with reports emerging of a new contender in Wigan we know there are plenty more examples out there waiting to be reviewed.

From supermarkets to town centres, schools to sports centres, or even your own – we’d like to see some of the worst seasonal offerings that maybe try a little too hard to meet the mark.
