The BTV Winter Market

The BTV Winter Market is a cozy indoor shopping experience celebrating local makers, artists, and food vendors. Enjoy festive vibes, handcrafted goods, and delicious treats—all while supporting small Vermont businesses!

• Friday, November 29 | 11 AM – 5 PM — BCA Community Room - 405 Pine Street

• Friday, December 12 | 4 PM – 8 PM — Contois Auditorium (2nd floor), City Hall - 149 Church Street

• Saturday, December 13 | 11 AM – 5 PM — Contois Auditorium, City Hall – 149 Church Street

We’ve shifted the market indoors to create a more comfortable experience for both vendors and shoppers during the colder months—and to make the event more sustainable for our team and partners.

Nope! This event is free and open to the public.

Each market will feature 26–33 vendors offering a variety of prints, crafts, jewelry, glasswork, woodworking, ceramics, and more!

Some vendors will return for multiple dates, while others will rotate—so each market offers something new! Check out the full list of vendors above!

Most of our vendors accept card and Venmo, but we recommend bringing some cash just in case!

There will be some food and beverage vendors. See the full lineup above!
