How many lights do I need to dress my outdoor Christmas trees?

Knowing how many lights you need for your outdoor Christmas tree can be tricky, whether it's a regular-sized 6ft or if you're going more Trafalgar Square with a 20ft tree. Luckily, we've got a handy tool that can help you out, regardless of how you want to dress your tree.

Why get Christmas lights for your outdoor trees?

The tradition of Christmas tree lights dates back to 17th-century Germany, although the lights used then were real candles and not the miniature bulbs we know and love today. Thankfully, we now substitute open flame with LED (light-emitting diode) technology. This is not only much safer but they are also waterproof and more efficient than incandescent options.

But back to the aesthetics. Twinkling LED lights on an outdoor Christmas tree never fail to instil a sense of festive cheer when you gaze at them, and with an abundance of different colours, styles, designs and lengths available, you can turn your garden into your grotto!

"Outdoor Christmas tree lights bring the festive spirit alive before you even step through your door. The soft glow not only adds warmth to cold winter nights, but it extends the holiday cheer beyond your home's walls. Our extensive collection, from twinkling LED lights to smart-controlled patterns, offers endless possibilities for creativity."

Outdoor Christmas Tree Lights FAQs

  • Q:How to put lights on a Christmas tree outside

    A:

    Once you've settled on the lights you want and measured the length you need, you can set about decking out your outdoor Christmas tree. There are a few bits you'll need before you get started, including a ladder for those hard-to-reach branches, tape or string and an outdoor extension cord if you're not opting for outdoor battery lights.

    Start by winding the lights up the tree's trunk, making sure the plug end is as close to the outlet as possible. If you want uniform spacing, you need a width of about four fingers between each light coil.

    Once you've made it to the branches, set up your ladder and run the lights up each tree limb in whatever pattern you fancy. Secure the end of the lights or any drooping sections with outdoor tape or string and you're ready to glow!

  • Q:What other decorations are there for my outdoor Christmas tree?

    A:

    If traditional string lights don't fit into your Christmas décor plan, there are other options. Threading icicle lights along tree branches or decorating foliage with snowflake fairy lights gives the magical appearance of a winter wonderland. Twinkling stars also make a dazzling display.

    For lighting up the space under your outdoor tree, why not set up jolly Christmas figures? Grazing reindeer, a snowman or a family of penguins take your lights up a notch, making your tree an entire display in itself.

  • Q:Can outdoor Christmas tree lights be left on all night?

    A:

    Our LED outdoor Christmas lights are safe to be left on all night if you choose to. They produce less heat compared to other bulbs so there is no risk to your tree. Although, if you have concerns about how expensive they are to run, use our energy calculator to find out the cost of having your Christmas tree lights on overnight.
