To raise funds for BC Children’s Hospital, the Festival of Trees transforms lobbies across the province into holiday wonderlands. Communities come together and vote on their favourite tree, sponsored and decorated by local businesses or individuals. If you’re visiting one of these cities this holiday season, be sure to stop in for a look to join in the celebration and support the cause!
