Festival of Trees

Experience the magic of the Festival of Trees! The Festival of Trees is a beloved Grand Boulevard tradition, taking place each year in Grand Park. This year’s celebration will be held on Tuesday, December 2 — the Tuesday AFTER Thanksgiving and also National Day of Giving — from 4:00 PM to 6:30 PM. The event is open to the public and features a festive atmosphere with piped holiday music, hot chocolate, cookies, and the official tree judging. Guests can purchase a $5 voting bell to cast their vote for their favorite tree for the People’s Choice Award. Winners, including the judges’ selections, will be announced at 6:30 PM, and the beautifully decorated trees will remain on display in Grand Park through Christmas. Visitors are encouraged to stroll through the park, enjoy the magical holiday setting, and learn about each participating organization’s mission.
