Voted Best Nonprofit Event of 2024 & 2026, the Festival of Trees is a cherished Central Oregon holiday tradition hosted by ClearPath Healthcare, formerly Hospice of Redmond, and held each year on the first Saturday in December at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center.  

This magical celebration offers two distinct experiences designed to bring our community together while supporting a meaningful cause: 

Daytime Community Event-- Free & Family Friendly! 10am-1pm

Gather with family and friends for a festive holiday experience filled with holiday magic. Visit with Santa Claus, enjoy live performance from local musicians, browse holiday shopping opportunities, admire more than 30 beautifully decorated trees, and vote for your favorite tree to win People's Choise Award. 

Back by popular demand, Kids crafts return this year, giving young visitors a chance to create special holiday keepsakes while making cherished memories. The daytime event is free to attend and welcomes guests of all ages for a joyful start to the holiday season.

Evening Gala & Live Auction -- Ticketed Fundraiser 5pm

As evening arrives, Festival of Trees transforms into an unforgettable gala experience. Guests will enjoy a delicious dinner, live entertainment, raffles, silent auction, and the excitement of our signature live auction featuring spectacularly decorated trees.

A limited number of just 100 Golden Tickets will be available for purchase this year. One fortunate winner will earn first-choice selection from our live auction packages, making this one of the evening's most coveted opportunities.

Celebrate the season. Create memories. Make a difference.
