Local organizations and families decorate trees with creative themes—from classic holiday styles to playful designs. You can also purchase raffle tickets onsite for your chance to win your favorite tree!
Snow Village Trains: Step into a miniature holiday world where HO & O scale model trains wind their way through festive villages and familiar scenes—Boston at Christmas, Fenway Park, the North Pole, and more. Skaters twirl across ice rinks, Santas hide in the details, while hundreds of twinkling lights bring every scene to life.

Holiday Garden Lightscapes: Holiday lights and decorations fill the Garden. See the Garden at Elm Bank in a new light with holiday lightscapes, magical displays, and the perfect photo opportunities. Warm up with hot cocoa when you arrive and finish your visit roasting marshmallows for s’mores by the firepits, both included with your ticket.
