Festival of Trees at The Fairmont

The Fairmont Hotel in Newport Beach is a winter wonderland with its Festival of Trees on display now through Wednesday, December 2. The extravagant trees are sponsored and decorated by businesses, organizations or individuals and will be the centerpieces of the Silver and Gold Reception & Tree Auction to benefit South County Outreach on Thursday, December 3, at 6:30 p.m.
The Silver and Gold Reception will feature wine, hors d’ oeuvres, seasonal entertainment and an exciting live auction. Reception reservations are $100 or 10 for $900. Winning bidders will have their holiday trees delivered to their home or business. Ninety cents of every dollar raised by Festival of Trees goes directly to help local people living below the poverty line.
The Fairmont – presenting sponsor of Festival of Trees – will host a Trees of Hope holiday toy drive to support the South County Outreach Adopt-A-Family program. The public is invited to bring toy donations to the Fairmont. South County Outreach provides food and housing to low-income individuals and families in crisis.
