Five days before Halloween, the Biltmore Estate announced on social media that it’s getting ready for one of its biggest holidays.

The Estate posted on social media on Oct. 26 that “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas at Biltmore,” and shared a video of crews installing new trees on the front lawn, including a centerpiece tree that is over 50 feet tall.

“Today, October 26, our teams began to process of installing our Front Lawn tree display. This 55-foot Norway spruce will be encircled by 40 evergreens, and illuminated during our Candlelight Christmas Evenings,” the Estate said in the post.

Christmas at Biltmore and the popular Candlelight Christmas Evenings are now just days away. Both events begin on Election Day on Nov. 3.

Christmas at Biltmore will run through Jan. 10, and Candlelight Christmas Evenings will run through Jan. 9.

Tickets are available by going to the Biltmore Estate website.
