Sip mulled wine and walk amongst a glow of holiday cheer in support of BC Children’s Hospital Foundation.
The Festival of Trees returns to Mission Hill Family Estate for its ninth year, spreading holiday spirit and beautiful decorations across the winery grounds. Proceeds from the events will support BC Children’s Hospital Foundation’s Excellence in Childhood Health Fund, which provides financial aid in fast-track breakthrough research.
Over the past eight years, the community event has raised more than $330,000 to support the foundation.
Early-bird shoppers and can’t-wait holiday decorators can have the first opportunity to wander the grounds from 5 to 8 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 21. Santa Tom will make special appearances for photos, and in addition to the estate’s retail boutique, the popular holiday market of local artisans will have fully giftable items from jewelry to pottery.
Tickets to the opening event are $25 per guest (free admission for those under five). Advanced tickets are required and can be purchased here: https://www.exploretock.com/missionhillwinery/experience/364676/festival-of-trees-celebration?date=2025-11-21&size=2&time=12%3A00.
The Festival of Trees experience will run from Nov. 22 to Jan. 4, offering memorable experiences, including a guided tour through the decorated estate and holiday trees. Each booking will include a seated tasting of a thoughtfully designed wine flight paired with small seasonal bites by the estate’s culinary team.
Tickets to the experience are $65 per person or $35 for members (minors are welcome with a reduced fee of $30 for non-alcoholic pairings). Prepaid reservations for parties of up to four people can be purchased here (walk-ins accepted, subject to availability). https://www.exploretock.com/missionhillwinery/experience/205366/festival-of-trees?date=2025-11-22&size=2&time=12%3A00.
