The 110-foot-tall immersive holiday light fixture is set to return Nov. 17 and will be shining through Dec. 31. It will be open from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. daily. There will also be a special ball drop-style countdown beginning at 9 p.m. on New Year's Eve. 

The tree consists of 60,000 LED lights and is known as the largest installation in North America. The Mile High Tree was created by ILMEX Illumination, a globally decorative lighting production company in Spain.

The tree is free to visit and will be located at the Civic Center Park. The annual lighting ceremony will take place on Nov. 17 at 5:15 p.m. 

The showing is presented by Xcel Energy and Xfinity.
