Improving the Fairview and Area palliative care services since 1992.

Festival of Trees will run November 17th – November 22nd, 2025
The Fairview & Area Palliative Care Society will be holding our 30th Annual Festival of Trees from November 17th – November 22nd, 2025, at the Dunvegan Motor Inn.

Bidding on donated items will be online this year. Volunteers will be available to help you with this new process. Hours of operation will be from noon to 9:00 pm Monday through Friday. Bidding will close on Friday @ 9.00 pm. This year the children's draw is returning and will be available for submissions and bidding by the public. The Society continues to fund Palliative Care training sessions. There is still a need to replace aging medical equipment and furniture in the Palliative Care suites. We also fund some supplies and equipment not covered by Alberta Health Services.

We are inviting businesses, organizations, and individuals to decorate an artificial Christmas tree, wreath, centre piece or Christmas item in the theme of their choice and donate it to the festival. We request that items be set up on Sunday November 16th between the hours of noon and 7:00 pm. Items will be on public display Monday November 17th through to Friday, November 21st, from noon to 9pm. Successful bidders can pay and pick up their item on Saturday, November 22nd, 2025, from 9:00am – 12:00 pm (noon). If you wish to donate an item, there are four (4) ways you can register your item:
