The Firefly Festive Forest
Selling Exhibition: 12 November–1 December 2026 • London

T he Firefly Festive Forest brings together more than 30 original interpretations of the Christmas tree by an exceptional group of internationally celebrated artists, designers and creative voices, transforming London’s Sloane Street into a public art trail from 12 November–1 December 2026.

Featuring works by Richard Hudson, Charlotte Colbert, Roksanda, Ruth Davis, Tom Faulkner, Charlotte Tilbury and Patrick Mavros, alongside many more established and emerging artists, the collection offers a distinctive perspective on one of the most enduring symbols of the festive season.

Alongside the main trail, two trees created by Sotheby’s and Bamford x Nila will be showcased at Sotheby’s offering visitors another opportunity to experience the collection.

Each tree will be available to bid on via an online auction from 12 November–1 December, giving these unique creations the opportunity to find a new home. You can view the auction here.

Funds raised from The Firefly Festive Forest auction will support Quintessentially Foundation, a London-focused charity that works with small, frontline charities to improve the lives of children and young people across the capital.


The Foundation, through its Firefly Project, identifies charities with the potential to grow their impact and provides funding, expert guidance, training and access to its network. It believes the circumstances a young person is born into should not determine their future. Quintessentially Foundation currently works with seven incredible charities – 20/20 Levels, Create Arts, Drive Forward Foundation, The Kids Network, Let Me Know, Settle, and The Violence Intervention Project (VIP) – who support young people with mentoring, tutoring, educational workshops, therapeutic support, and employment, education and entrepreneurship opportunities.
