The
Festival of Trees is in its 16th year as a family-centered
community event. Proceeds from the festival go toward serving
the children and families of The Baby Fold.
Come and enjoy a venue of 7' and 4' custom-designed trees. There's a large selection of celebrity trees, a gingerbread village, unique centerpieces and wreaths. All items are available for bid in a silent auction. You'll also enjoy hundreds of local and national performers and a series of special events.
The
entire central Illinois community is invited to kick-off
the holiday season at the Festival of Trees! Come enjoy the
sights and sounds of Home for the Holidays with
the spectacular Christmas trees, entertainment to suit every
taste, and special events for festival-goers of all ages.
