Memorial’s Festival of Trees in Numbers

With the holiday season now underway, our  excitement  to unveil this year’s Festival of Trees keeps building!

In less than two weeks, the Orr Building at the Illinois State Fairgrounds will transform into a winter wonderland for central Illinois families. Whether it’s the exquisitely decorated trees, wreaths and swags that bring you out or the Candy Cane Express, this year’s Festival of Trees promises heart-warming holiday fun for all ages.

Just take a look at what makes up the area’s largest family-oriented holiday event. The numbers speak for themselves.

The holiday extravaganza begins Nov. 23 and runs through Dec. 1. Proceeds raised go toward Memorial Medical Center’s healthcare programs that advance research and improve patients’ experiences. Visit our Festival of Trees homepage for more information or if you’d like to volunteer.
