Braintree’s Festival of Trees
About
Braintree’s Festival of Trees is a volunteer-run holiday event that brings local businesses and residents together inside Braintree Town Hall for four days in December. More than 50 trees, each uniquely themed and decorated by businesses, organizations, and residents, are displayed and raffled off to attendees. Live entertainment, refreshments, and holiday festivities fill the hall, and the event draws hundreds of residents, friends, and families.
Money raised goes back into the community. The committee, made up entirely of volunteers, supports local projects and residents facing hardship, including a father and son who lost everything in a house fire. It has also joined community efforts such as the Relay For Life of Greater South Shore. Sponsors, led by presenting sponsor Clean Harbors, cover the costs of entertainment, decor, and refreshments and receive recognition at the event and online.
