Preparations are under way in the White House for the Christmas and New Year seasons, while First Lady Melania Trump is expected to unveil the White House decorations for the first time since President Donald Trump took office.
Many events and rituals, most of which will last for decades, will be witnessed by the White House this year, including the Christmas tree, the publication of the holiday booklet, and public tours to look at the decorations of the White House.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the birth of the Cave of the Nativity, the birthplace of Christ in the White House during Christmas. The First Lady's office confirmed in a statement to The Hill that the Cave of the Feast will be present this year.
The first lady and her son, Baron, received the Christmas tree Monday at the White House, where Melania was set up and supervised.
The President's family will be lighting the national Christmas tree lights in front of the White House on November 30, as part of a technical event, in a tradition of 95 years ago.
The First Lady had published photographs showing the preparations for a holiday booklet traditionally issued by the White House.
The White House will continue the tradition of allowing the public to see the White House decorations for holidays in tours that are being prepared by volunteers from across the United States, the White House said.
