The Baby Fold's Festival of Trees

Presented by Radio Bloomington

November 17-19 at the Interstate Center, Bloomington

The Baby Fold's 24th Annual Festival of Trees is Central Illinois' premier holiday kick-off event. This holiday extravaganza is a fantastic way to get into the spirit of the season. Experience the wonder of Gingerbread Village, witness non-stop entertainment, stroll through the Enchanted Forest while sipping hot cocoa or enjoy a treat from the Cookie Shop. Feeling photogenic? Stop at our photo booth! Children delight in the many activities in Jingle Bell Junction where crafts and games run all weekend long. Get in on the fun during our Mission Quest family activity for your chance to win a gorgeous tree from Jeffrey Alans, and most importantly, bid on beautiful holiday decor during our Silent Auction to support kids and families! The Baby Fold is Growing, Expanding and Investing in the future for children. All proceeds from the Festival of Trees go to the children and families we serve.
