Circle Craft Holiday Market
November 6 to 10, 2024
The Vancouver Convention Center, West Building
The Circle Craft Holiday Market returns for a landmark 50th season, welcoming 300+ artisans. What began in 1974 as a church craft fair – with dope, big dogs, and breastfeeding unofficially barred to help entice a broader clientele – has flourished into Western Canada’s longest-standing and largest handmade marketplace. An ethical, local alternative to online shopping, throwaway fashions, and copycat designs, the five-day fine craft market offers visitors a unique opportunity to connect with skilled artisans, take in live demonstrations, and enjoy festive food and drink while getting ahead of their holiday shopping. Tickets $12 ONLINE

Nov 13 - Dec 24, 2024

Our new 35 ft. walk-through Christmas tree, expanded Lovers’ Lane and the Aeroplan Christmas Carousel (free to ride!) are sure to brighten the season, as is a full calendar of entertainment and events.
