Ironworkers and equipment operators spent Saturday putting the 128 foot tall Christmas tree together in the center of Bayfront Festival Park.

Event founder, Nathan Bentley said the tree has more than 100,000 lights, making it the largest freestanding Christmas tree in the United States, and  a major draw attraction across the upper midwest. 

Bentleyville is scheduled to open November 21st and will close December 27th.
