Festival of Trees is Ann’s Place’s signature holiday fundraiser in Greater Danbury, Connecticut, bringing the community together for three days of festive activities and support for families affected by cancer. The annual event features more than 150 creatively decorated trees, donated by community members and offered through a raffle, alongside additional raffle and auction prizes. Visitors can also explore artisan crafts, the Boutique and Quilter’s Corner gift shops, and enjoy seasonal entertainment, children’s activities, a winter village, and special gatherings such as Sip & Shop and Jingle & Mingle.

The festival welcomes approximately 4,000 to 5,000 attendees and offers opportunities for individuals and businesses to participate by donating a tree or prize, becoming a sponsor, volunteering, or joining as a vendor. Proceeds support Ann’s Place, which provides free services to people living with cancer and their loved ones. Its team of clinical social workers, facilitators, and wellness experts offers support intended to improve quality of life during and after cancer.
