Holiday Markets to Make Your Shopping Merry
Shop local this holiday season at these festive holiday markets around the Main Line and Philadelphia
Holiday markets harken back to the old world tradition of the Christmas market. It was a place for people to shop, eat, drink, and be merry, despite the wintery chill and darkness. These days, holiday markets are a popular addition to many families’ seasonal activities. Whether held indoors or outdoors, your family can enjoy an enchanting atmosphere, while browsing handcrafted treasures and unique gifts. And better yet, it’s an opportunity to support local crafters, makers, artisans, and more!
What You’ll Find in this Lineup
We’ve rounded up local holiday craft markets where shopping is a festive experience. At the top, we’ve listed season-long holiday markets. Below that, you’ll find a calendar listing of one-day and weekend holiday markets from our Events Calendar.
