This beloved holiday event will feature over 140 curated local makers, handmade artisans, vintage vendors, and emerging small brands, live music, festive cocktails, gourmet food trucks, free photo booths, a kids’ play area, and more.

Don’t miss our FREE Holiday Wreath Make + Take section, where guests can handcraft their own festive fresh wreaths — it’s the perfect way to add a personal touch to your holiday season.

As an added benefit, guests can catch the Parade of Lights right from the venue after the event on Sunday from 5 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. for a magical waterfront view of the boats as they shine across the bay while sipping hot cocoa.

Admission is $5 presale/$6 at the door, and kids under 10 are free! Guests can also purchase a tote bag with their admission ticket, $10 presale/$12 at the door.

Come support local businesses, sip delicious hot cocoa, and enjoy a weekend of creativity and festivities.
