Featured UMG artists with themed trees include Alan Jackson, Carrie Underwood, Darius Rucker, Josh Turner, Keith Urban, Reba McEntire, Eric Church, George Strait, Luke Bryan and Mickey Guyton. The country artists have also donated VIP experiences for the event, including fly-aways, VIP concert experiences, exclusive merchandise and more to benefit First Responders Children’s Foundation. Proceeds raised will provide scholarships and mental health services to children who have lost a parent in the line of duty.
Some of the themes and experiences include Underwood’s white tree celebrating her Christmas album, My Gift (Special Edition), as well as a trip to Las Vegas for her upcoming “Reflection: The Las Vegas Residency,” as well as Church’s trees representing his albums Heart and Soul, colored red with an American theme and blue with a rock n’ roll theme, respectively, with accompanying East and West Coast VIP Experiences.
Also included is Guyton’s Indigo tree and an Ultimate NYC Thanksgiving VIP Experience, and Luke Bryan’s camo-themed tree accompanied by a Live In Las Vegas flyaway, including a pre-show margarita toast with the country superstar. Other artist packages include VIP festival experiences, exclusive numbered prints, signed guitars, custom toy packages, and more. The complete listings can be viewed here.
