Taking Christmas to New Heights!
As a proud creative agency based in the North East, Blumilk is fortunate to be surrounded by some of the most beautiful National Trust properties in the country. This year, one of these iconic locations, Cragside, is going all out for Christmas – and it’s set to be an unforgettable experience.
Cragside is taking Christmas to new heights – literally! Visitors to the estate during the festive season will be able to witness the UK’s Tallest Living Christmas Tree. Towering at 42m high, the Giant Redwood will be illuminated by over 2,000 twinkling lights, creating a magical atmosphere in the heart of Northumberland. The 160 year old tree is the height of 10 double-decker buses. That’s twice as tall as the Angel of the North!
Blumilk was thrilled to be commissioned to create an artist’s impression of the tree, as part of the lead-up to Cragside’s Spirits of the Forest event. Our creative team drew inspiration from the grandeur of the historic tree and added enchanting fairy lights to show the festive spirit! The final image will be a key element in the National Trust’s marketing materials, spreading the magic of this unique celebration throughout the festivities.
Watch the creative magic happen!
The tree will be in its glory from Saturday 30 November 2024 to Sunday 5 January 2025. Open daily (except Christmas Eve and Christmas Day) 11am-3pm. Let us know if you plan to visit this Christmas.
