The smell of Christmas is in the air in Grapevine, the Christmas Capital of Texas.

The city's biggest Christmas tree arrived from Michigan on a flat bed truck on Wednesday.

A crane had to hoist the 55-foot white fir to the ground in front of Grapevine Main Station.

Workers also had to trim the giant trunk with a chain saw so it could fit in the Peace Plaza.

When it’s fully fluffed out, the tree will be 24 feet wide and covered in about a 100,000 lights.

The official Christmas tree lighting takes place this Monday, Nov. 20 during the Carol of Lights event presented by Texas Health.
