During the service there will be readings, hymns and carols, and music from Thoresby Brass Band.
People are encouraged to do a Covid-19 Lateral Flow Test before attending to check they are not infectious and also to wear a face covering and use hand sanitiser which is available at the crematorium.
Coun Andy Burgin, portfolio holder for Environment and Leisure at Mansfield District Council, said: "It's been another difficult year during this pandemic for many people and the tree proves to be a popular way for families to pay special tribute to their loved ones at this time of year."
