How big and beautiful can a Christmas tree really get? Come see the festive trees at the Capitol Theatre in November through December, decorated for the season by local businesses and community groups. You can enter for a chance to win and take one home for Santa's visit.

The historic Capitol Theatre has its own holiday tradition

Over two decades ago, the tradition of Capitol Christmas and the Festival of Lights & Trees began. In 1997 the theatre volunteers started this small-town holiday tradition, raffling off a few trees from our main stage. Not only has Capitol Christmas grown to be one of the theatre’s most important annual fundraising events, but it has matured into one of the most cherished holiday traditions for the community.
