Festival of Trees is a local tradition that captures the magic of the holidays while bringing the community together in support of education and community needs. Proceeds from this years’ event will be used to support School District 25’s Education Foundation, Idaho State University student scholarships, Make-A-Wish Idaho and SEICAA Meals on Wheels.
From November 20-23, Idaho State University’s L.E. and Thelma E. Stephen’s Performing Arts Center will be transformed into a wonderland of beautifully decorated trees and displays, with entertainment and attractions scheduled daily. Some of these events include the Grand Holiday Gala (held the night before the Festival is open to the public), Children's Royal Tea Party, Breakfast with Santa, musical performances, and more.
