Thanks to the dedication of the hundreds of volunteers who made it possible and the overwhelming support of the community, the 2018 Holiday Tree Festival raised $312,000 to support patient care programs at Akron Children’s Hospital!
We hope you’ll join us for the 39th annual Holiday Tree Festival at the John S. Knight Center Nov. 21 - 29. If you’re interested in decorating and donating a tree, wreath or holiday gift for the event, contracts will be available here starting August 1.
Holiday Tree Festival Contract Guidelines
- All contracts to enter a tree, wreath or holiday gift into the Holiday Tree Festival will be posted August 1 and remain open through September 25 or until the limit of entries is reached, whichever comes first.
- It’s never too early to start planning! Now is a great time to start thinking of your entry’s title and decorative theme, you’ll need that information to fill out your contract.
- All items staged on or near your tree will be delivered to or picked up by the new lucky owner.
- To ensure safe delivery to their new home, trees cannot exceed 7 feet tall, including the topper.
