Magic happens in the iconic tent at Torrance Memorial when Holiday Festival comes to town, all thanks to our amazing community of volunteers, supporters and staff. 🎄

In 1984, the first Festival of Trees—then a four-day event—was held in the hospital’s underground garage and raised $10,000 from auctioned trees. Flash-forward to today, and Torrance Memorial’s Holiday Festival has grown into a six-day event with gorgeous trees, unique holiday finds, talented performances and more. Since its inception, it has raised nearly $16 million to support Torrance Memorial.

Here’s a look at some behind-the-scenes events that bring the spirit to life as we celebrate 40 years of Holiday Festival.

"This festival uplifts everyone who comes—especially our seniors and children. When they enter the large, white, iconic tent and look around at the trees and decorations, their faces light up. It’s a wonderful feeling,” says co-chair Carolyn Snyder, who has been involved with Torrance Memorial...

Like the uniqueness of a snowflake, so are the heroes that walk among us. Not only are they inspirational, but they also offer hope. What does your hero look like? Is it your doctor, nurse, first responder, teacher, neighbor, and or friend?

There is a special way to recognize them all while helping the expansion of Torrance Memorial Medical Center's Emergency Room. Each recipient will be notified of the honor and a beautiful snowflake ornament with their name will be displayed on the Heroes of Hope Tree in the Lundquist Tower.
