Vermilion County’s annual holiday kick off, the Festival of Trees, will be returning to the David S. Palmer Arena November 13th – 17th, 2021. This year the event is being presented by Balloons Over Vermilion NFP, a local not-for- profit organization dedicated to addressing the needs of families and young people in our communities. They are excited to return the event to the community and once again transform the arena to a holiday wonderland with beautifully decorated trees and wreaths, the smell of gingerbread wafting through the air, the excitement experienced in the kids craft area and escape room, a packed raffle house and wonderful entertainment throughout the event.
