Festival of Trees has kicked off the holiday season with an unforgettable celebration for an extraordinary cause. Organized by Kennedy Krieger Institute, this three-day celebration brings Baltimore together to raise critical funds for children, adolescents and adults with diseases, disorders and injuries impacting the nervous system.
Held at the Maryland State Fairgrounds, the event features hundreds of beautifully decorated trees, wreaths and gingerbread houses, a massive vendor marketplace, rides, games, crafts, live entertainment and holiday magic galore.
Whether you’re shopping for a cause, meeting Santa for the first time or dancing the night away at our new Tinsel on Tap, you’re helping us create a brighter future for thousands of children and families.
