The three-day market brings the community together for a weekend of getting into the spirit before the season begins in earnest.

This year’s market features one-of-a-kind treasures from hundreds of artisan shops and local makers, sensational bites and sips from local vendors, live carolers roaming the aisles, hands-on workshops from DIY holiday decor to cookie decorating, and adoptable pups at Puppermint Lane in partnership with One Tail at a Time. Snap a photo with the 25-foot living blue spruce, take a break with a festive cocktail in the YuleTide Lounge, and bring the little ones by to meet Santa. It’s a one-stop shop to prepare for holiday hosting, gifting, and celebrating before the hustle and bustle begins.
