The parabolic Anderson model is the heat equation with some extra spatial randomness. In this paper we consider the parabolic Anderson model with i.i.d. Pareto potential on a critical Galton-Watson tree conditioned to survive. We prove that the solution at time $t$ is concentrated at a single site with high probability and at two sites almost surely as $t \to \infty$. Moreover, we identify asymptotics for the localisation sites and the total mass, and show that the solution $u(t,v)$ at a vertex $v$ can be well-approximated by a certain functional of $v$. The main difference with earlier results on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is that we have to incorporate the effect of variable vertex degrees within the tree, and make the role of the degrees precise.
