Celebrate the spirit of the season while supporting a great cause at the 24th annual Festival of Trees, benefiting Ann’s Place, November 20-22 at The Summit in Danbury. This beloved community tradition brings holiday magic to life while raising vital funds to help local families facing cancer.

Guests can stroll through a dazzling display of more than 150 creatively decorated trees and wreaths, with opportunities to win festive treasures through raffles and a silent auction. The Festival Boutique, Quilter’s Corner and artisan craft fair offer unique gifts, handcrafted decorations and holiday shopping opportunities.

Families will enjoy the Children’s Winter Village, featuring face painting, holiday crafts and visits with Santa and Mrs. Claus. Live entertainment adds to the festive atmosphere throughout the weekend. Special events include Friday evening’s Sip, Stroll & Shop and Saturday’s Jingle & Mingle, featuring tastings, food and live music.

Since its founding in 2003, the Festival of Trees has raised nearly $5 million to support Ann’s Place, which provides free counseling, support groups and wellness programs to individuals and families navigating cancer. The event continues to bring the community together through the joy of giving and the spirit of the holiday season.
