The Christmas tree has been installed in the town square of Lycksele, Sweden, surprisingly early – in October. Despite the early arrival of the tree, the Christmas lights will not be turned on immediately. Ola Gunnarsson, a facilities technician for Lycksele Municipality, stated that there is no rush to install the lighting. This unusual timing suggests an early start to preparations for the holiday season in Lycksele. While the tree is in place, residents will have to wait a bit longer for the full festive display. The municipality did not provide a specific date for when the lights will be switched on. This move has sparked discussion among residents about the early commencement of Christmas celebrations in Lycksele.
