ANTHEM, AZ — It’s that time of year again: Outlets North Phoenix is setting up its iconic giant Christmas tree for the 23rd year!
A 70-foot-tall fresh-cut tree made its journey from the Shasta-Trinity National Forest on the California-Oregon border, arriving at the retail center in Anthem Friday morning.
The tree, coined as the tallest fresh-cut tree in the state, will be decorated with thousands of ornaments, 10,000 LED lights, and a three-foot copper star.
It’s a weeks-long process that involves hundreds of hours of work, specially designed industrial wires to keep it steady, fire retardant, and more.
There will be a tree-lighting ceremony and free concert on Saturday, Nov. 23.
