The Festival of Trees transforms its venues into festive wonderlands filled with holiday décor, music, and community spirit

Delaware Hospice will once again usher in the holiday season with its 38th Annual Festival of Trees, a beloved community tradition featuring beautifully decorated trees, wreaths, and seasonal displays. The festival will be held over two weekends — November 14–16 at Brantwyn Estate in Wilmington and November 21–23 at the Delaware Hospice Center in Milford. Admission is free and open to the public.

Each year, the Festival of Trees transforms its venues into festive wonderlands filled with holiday décor, music, and community spirit. One of the most meaningful traditions is the Remembrance Tree, adorned with ornaments purchased in memory of loved ones. Each ornament serves as a heartfelt tribute, symbolizing remembrance and connection during the season.

Visitors can also browse the holiday marketplace and bake shop, with proceeds benefiting Delaware Hospice programs and services. Funds raised help provide care, comfort, and support to individuals and families facing serious illness throughout Delaware and parts of Pennsylvania.

“Festival of Trees visitors not only enjoy the festive displays, but also support Delaware Hospice’s mission of providing care and comfort to those who need it most,” said Charles McDonough, Delaware Hospice President and CEO.
