For the 2025 Wakanda Wonderland event we are pleased to offer Memorial Holiday Trees.

The room provided will be a quiet space for reflection, gathering and sharing memories, separate from the trees decorated as part of the general event, and will not be a part of the tree voting.

Your tree will memorialize a friend or family member. This can be with favorite ornaments, a theme that speaks to that person's interests, photographs or other memories. You can bring your own artificial tree, or use one provided by the museum. Please see the following page for guidelines.

If desired, at each memorial tree, the museum will provide a sign that states the name of the memorialized individual and who they are memorialized by.

The memorial tree area will be available for visiting free of charge. Trees will be on display through January 3. If visitors want to see the rest of the museum and tree display, regular admission applies. Museum admission on the day of Wakanda Wonderland is free.

Deadline to register is November 26th, 2025.
