when does a christmas tree come down

Christmas trees are usually taken down within the first few weeks of January. This is because many people feel that the spirit of Christmas is best enjoyed throughout the entire month, and keeping the tree up past the New Year can feel a bit out of place. Taking the tree down early also helps to avoid any potential fire hazards that can be caused by needles or lights that have been left on for too long. Some people choose to keep their trees up until February, but that's a bit more rare.
