In most households, the Christmas tree is taken down shortly after the Christmas holiday. In some families, it is taken down on New Year's Day, while others wait until the Epiphany, which is celebrated on January 6th. In some cultures, the tree is taken down on the eve of Three Kings Day, which is celebrated on January 5th. The decision on when to take down the tree is ultimately up to the individual or family, and varies from tradition to tradition.
