15th Annual Festival of Trees

For more than ten years, the Latino Chamber of Commerce and United Way of Southern Colorado have partnered together in a fun, creative way to make a difference in our community during the magical holiday season. The Latino Chamber Holiday Happy Hour & 15th Annual Festival of Trees will be held Thursday, December 10th from 5:00pm – 8:00pm at the Pueblo Union Depot.

This beloved event has become an annual tradition for so many because it brings people together for a great cause and allows us to celebrate the holiday season early. The evening will feature networking, a dinner plate, holiday desserts, a hot chocolate buffet, music, games, and photos with Santa Claus.

The highlight of the evening will be our silent auction featuring beautifully decorated Christmas Trees, wreaths, and baskets created by local organizations, businesses, and professionals. Each tree can have its own unique theme, showcase a specific organization or business, include special giveaways, or feature a creative design you may only see at the Festival of Trees!

Want to decorate a tree or wreath for the silent auction?

🎄 $25 Silent Auction Entry Fee – If you purchase a Christmas tree from the Latino Chamber
🎄 $15 Silent Auction Entry Fee – If you supply your own Christmas tree, wreath, or basket
🎟️ $20 Per Person – Individual event ticket

Organizations, businesses, and professionals who contribute a Christmas tree, wreath, or basket to the silent auction will receive marketing recognition throughout the evening. Participating contributors will be recognized on the event's silent auction bid sheets, event presentation, and through announcements during the event, providing an opportunity to showcase your organization or business to fellow attendees and members of the community.

Please note that silent auction entry fees do not include an individual event ticket. Your event ticket includes a dinner plate and access to all of the evening's dessert options and activities.

Get in contact with us today so you can decorate a tree for a great cause! A portion of the proceeds from the silent auction will go back to United Way of Southern Colorado!
