Trees of Hope at Château Montebello
A festive tradition of solidarity
Until January 5, 2025
Every year, the magic of the holiday season takes center stage in the Great Hall of the Fairmont Le Château Montebello, thanks to Les Arbres de l'Espoir. Now in its 11th year, this emblematic event invites Outaouais businesses to decorate majestic Christmas trees, which will remain on display throughout the holiday season.
In addition to creating a magical atmosphere, this event has a much broader scope: all funds raised go to the Banque Alimentaire de la Petite-Nation, helping families and children in the region. Each sponsored tree becomes a symbol of generosity and solidarity.
Join this great initiative by visiting the Château Montebello to admire the festive creations and vote for your favorite tree! Come and enjoy the holiday spirit while supporting an essential cause in our community.
