Charlie the Climbing Tree at the Spanish Steps

Charlie isn't your average Christmas tree. This is London's very first Christmas tree you can actually climb, sit on, and walk up. Located on the Spanish Steps, Charlie is a children's favourite and the most playful way to celebrate Christmas at Wembley Park.

Forget standing back and admiring from afar – Charlie wants you to get involved. Climb up, sit on the branches, strike a pose, and snap that perfect festive photo. Whether you're five or fifty-five, Charlie's here for everyone who's ready to play.

But there's more. Soon, you'll be able to light up Charlie with your own Christmas wishes. More details on this magical feature will be unveiled soon, but trust us, it's going to be special.

Charlie lives on the Spanish Steps from November 27, 2025, to January 5, 2026, and he's free to visit anytime. Come say hello, bring the kids (they will absolutely love him), and make some festive memories that don't involve just looking at a tree through a barrier.

This is Christmas, but make it interactive.
