Free admission. No tickets needed. Free Santa pictures and free horse carriage rides are part of the evening.
The Junior League of Lower Columbia is opening its Festival of Trees to the public on Friday, December 4, 2026, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. at Eateries at Three Rivers Crossing (the former Macy’s), 331 Three Rivers Drive in Kelso.
Families can walk among decorated full-sized and tabletop Christmas trees and wreaths, get a free picture with Santa, enjoy free horse carriage rides (the Junior League also notes a snowy sleigh ride), hear live holiday music from local student choirs, and browse silent auction items, treats, crafts, and more. The trees and wreaths will be auctioned the next evening at the ticketed, 21+ Festival of Trees fundraising gala.
Presented by the Junior League of Lower Columbia and sponsored by ABLANPT Physical & Massage Therapy.
