​Bring the whole family to share in the holiday spirit! Everyone is invited to Hope for the Holidays presented by IU Credit Union which will take place November 18–20, 2024, in The Pavilion at Switchyard Park.
​
Hope for the Holidays presented by IU Credit Union is Bloomington's sixth annual holiday tree festival and charity auction to benefit New Hope for Families, serving families overcoming homelessness right here in our community. Come see more than 50 unique and festive holiday trees decorated by local businesses, organizations, groups and families. The festival is free to attend and open to the public.

Throughout the festival, each of the fantastic trees on display can be purchased for a special "Buy It Now" price and any remaining entries will be auctioned off during an exciting live auction on the final night of the event.
