Celebrate the 41st Anniversary of the Festival of Trees!
Since 1986, the St. Francis Festival of Trees has been a cherished Greenville holiday tradition, bringing together local businesses, schools, churches, civic organizations, and volunteers to transform downtown into a festive holiday showcase.
Visitors are invited to stroll through both hotel lobbies and enjoy nearly 100 uniquely decorated Christmas trees, each creatively designed around its own theme. The festival celebrates the spirit of the season while supporting an important healthcare mission in our community.
The 2026 beneficiary is the Freissle Family Women's Center, helping ensure women and families have access to exceptional care close to home through advanced technology, modern facilities, and compassionate, personalized care.
The Festival of Trees is free and open to the public throughout the viewing period, making it one of Greenville's favorite holiday traditions for families, visitors, and the community.
