Tips & Advice

  • Pick up tree raffle tickets as you walk the displays, because that is your chance to take home one of the decorated trees.
  • Bring the kids along during public hours, since children under 12 get in free and can help you vote for your favorite trees.
  • Groups should call 262.636.9229 ahead of time to book a group viewing, which is available by appointment during normal business hours.
  • If you want to go to Olde Madrid's Holiday Feast on Dec. 1, get your ticket before the Nov. 30 deadline.
  • Skip Nov. 21, Nov. 26 and Dec. 2, because the hall is closed to the public those days for the preview party, Thanksgiving prep and a private luncheon.
