The council says they are facing 'financial challenges' so will focus resources on frontline services.
A spokesperson for Worthing Borough Council said: “This year we’ve decided to focus our festive display in the heart of the town centre where it can be enjoyed by the maximum number of people.
“Our Christmas tree is standing proudly in Montague Street, surrounded by the wonderful festive display organised by Worthing Town Centre Initiative.
“We’re facing difficult financial challenges like every council across the country, so will be focusing our resources on our frontline services, like keeping the town centre clean for our many visitors.
“We hope our residents and visitors understand the decision not to spend money on a second tree outside Worthing Town Hall.
