Imagine Miller Park as Chattanooga’s very own winter wonderland filled with holiday lights and trees adorned with tinsel, garlands, and ornaments. Enter: The Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) Festive Forest celebration.

For a second year, in partnership with local organizations, the BBB will bring this event downtown, in conjunction with EPB’s annual holiday window display. This festive display was inspired by + will be similar to the Tinsel Trail design in Huntsville, AL.

After gaining more community interest, Festive Forest is expanding from 50 to 80 trees this year. Each 6-ft Frazier fir tree will be decorated by a local business or organization sponsor.

The forest will be lit on Wednesday, Nov. 27, and will be up through Thursday, Jan. 2.

Bonus: Volunteer to help unload the trees on Wednesday, Nov. 20 starting at 10 a.m. — it will take around two to three hours.
