About Christmas Tree Elegance

Spokane Symphony Associates hosts this annual 13-day event, from the Tuesday following Thanksgiving into December.  This regional event attracts more than 100,000 attendees from around the region.  The event features a raffle of themed and beautifully decorated trees, located at the Historic Davenport Hotel and River Park Square.

The celebration, which began in 1983, is the largest of our annual fundraisers. This highly anticipated event is produced by our tireless volunteers’ 11 months of planning and efforts. 2024 was our most significant year, with 526,331 raffle tickets sold! We are hopeful that number will continue to grow each year.

Our continued success is largely due to the generous support of the donors to our trees and events.

How It Works

We are proud and excited to, once again, bring Christmas Tree Elegance to our supportive community for its 43rd year!

Individuals and businesses donate to create amazing tree displays with values of up to $4,999 in decorations and prizes.

A fabulous display of trees will be available from December 2nd – December 14th, 2025 at both The Historic Davenport Hotel and River Park Square. $1 raffle tickets are available for purchase and deposit at both locations.  **Ticket sales will end early on the final day.

NEWS RELEASE

Christmas Tree Elegance announces record-breaking sales again!

Christmas Tree Elegance 2024 broke sales records again with area residents purchasing 526,331 of the $1 raffle tickets sold for 15 decorated trees and gifts valued up to $4,999.  The raffle, which has been raising funds for the Spokane Symphony for 42 years, broke the previous record of 462,529 tickets in 2023.

Nine trees filled the mezzanine of the Historic Davenport Hotel and six trees dominated the second floor, east wing of River Park Square, creating a holiday tradition for families throughout the Inland Northwest.

“The response from the community has been tremendous.  The Spokane Symphony Associates are excited to celebrate this accomplishment.  It is made possible
by the financial support of individuals and businesses, including our Title Sponsor, Corwin Ford, and hundreds of hours donated by our volunteers.
I thank them all.” ~ Lori LaFrance, Christmas Tree Elegance 2024 Chair
