Description
The 16-foot tall Grand Hall Christmas Tree, with its historically accurate trimmings, is the center of Whitehall's holiday celebrations. The Tree Lighting festivities begin at 3:00 p.m. with holiday music played on Whitehall's original 1,249 pipe J.H. & C.S. Odell & Co. organ. This is the only opportunity visitors have to hear Whitehall's majestic organ. Visitors are sure to enjoy a special choir performance and refreshment. The event culminates at 4:45 with Henry Flagler's youngest descendants lighting the Grand Hall Christmas Tree. This family tradition is an enjoyable way to tour one of America's National Historic Landmarks, and celebrate the holiday season.
