16th Annual Festival of Trees

Celebrate the season at the Garden at Elm Bank

Dozens of holiday trees, decorated in fun themes and donated by local organizations and families! Enter the raffle for the chance to win a tree at the end of the festival.

Model trains wend their way through villages and vignettes, including Christmas in Boston, Fenway Park, a Dickensian village, the North Pole, and hundreds of decorated houses and lights. With too many Santas to count and skaters galore, Snow Village is a visual treat for young and old alike.

Holiday lights and decorations fill the Garden. See the Garden at Elm Bank in a new light with holiday lightscapes, magical displays, and the perfect photo opportunities. You'll get a hot cocoa at the gate and finish your visit with s'mores by the firepits.
