This year, the Isle of Wight County Press has a Christmas tree at the 27th annual Brighstone Christmas Tree Festival.

It will be on show this week, among more than 150 decorated trees, from Thursday.

Making it stand out, there will be some gorgeous baubles designed by readers and school children - our twelve favourites from over 100 entries in our competition.

We'll reveal our winners later this week. In the meantime, scroll through above, to enjoy these wonderful designs!

The County Press tree will be at Wilberforce Hall in the village, but you can also find trees at St Mary’s Church, Brighstone Methodist Church, Brighstone Social Club, Brighstone Library, Mottistone Church, All Saints Church, Calbourne, The Three Bishops Pub, Calbourne Water Mill and IW Pearl.

Entry to Brighstone Christmas Tree Festival is free, however donations are welcome.

Over the festival, there will also be a nativity pageant at Brighstone Methodist church, a festive night-time tractor ride-out, from IW Pearl to Calbourne Mill and Christmas quizzes and raffles.

Watch out for visits from Father Christmas, as well as live music, craft markets, face painting and homemade refreshments.

A free park and ride service is being operated by FYT bus and donations towards the community life-line service are welcome.
