Dear Friends of the Festival of Trees:

This year marks the 51st year of Gatlinburg’s Festival of Trees.  Hospitality Solutions is honored to participate as the Presenting Sponsor again in 2024. The proceeds from Gatlinburg’s Festival of Trees 2024 will benefit Boys & Girls Club of the Smoky Mountains and the Gatlinburg Chamber of Commerce Foundation.  The Boys & Girls Club of the Smoky Mountains serve more than 1,600 local youth across Sevier County. The clubs offer youth a safe place to learn and grow through programs designed to build character and strengthen life skills while not at home or school.

We are very pleased to announce that the proceeds from the Festival’s 50th year netted a donation of $100,000 to Boys and Girls Club of the Smoky Mountains and $17,500 to the Gatlinburg Chamber of Commerce Foundation Scholarship Fund. With your help and participation, we hope to continue to make this 51st year’s festival another successful one.

The Festival of Trees runs from November 27th to December 1st and kicks off with Candy Canes and Cocktails Reception on the evening of Tuesday, November 26th. The Festival will feature a children’s craft and play area, photos with Santa Claus and, of course, the beautifully decorated Christmas trees and wreaths.

Please join us in continuing the tradition of ringing in the Christmas season with the 2024 Festival of Trees!

If you are interested in sponsoring, participating in our event or donating silent auction items for our Kickoff Reception, please email us at Amelia@hospitalitysolutions.net. The Festival will be open from 10 am to 7 pm Wednesday, November 27th through Saturday, November 30th and on Sunday, December 1st from 10 am to 5 pm.

We greatly appreciate your support in continuing this beloved Christmas tradition that has been a part of our community for the past 50 years.
