Christmas Market

A real Christmas Market. For Healdsburg.

Not a craft fair. Not a holiday pop-up. A proper European-style Christmas market — two weekends and a full week of local artisans, handcrafts, food, music, and community in the heart of Healdsburg. Built to become the city's signature holiday tradition.

What your support builds.
Artisan Village
Local hands, local craft.
Curated vendor stalls showcasing Healdsburg and Sonoma County artisans — ceramics, woodwork, textiles, jewelry, food, and more. No mass-produced imports.
Live Entertainment
Every night, a stage.
Carolers, local musicians, youth ensembles, and community performers creating the atmosphere that makes a market feel like a destination, not a transaction.
Community Gathering
An old tradition, reclaimed.
Communal seating, warm drinks, food stalls, and programming designed to keep people lingering — because the best markets are the ones you don't want to leave.
Bilingual & Inclusive
Everyone's holiday.
Bilingual signage, culturally diverse vendors and performers, and fee-free entry. This is Healdsburg's market — all of Healdsburg.

Why this matters
“They celebrated harvest with agricultural festivals, as did the Native residents with their own seasonal celebrations. Fraternal organizations soon followed, as did singing, sports, and amateur theatre clubs. The clubs and organizations hosted socials, dances, and quilting bees.”

The Details
Two weekends. One week. A new tradition.
The Healdsburg Christmas Market will run nightly across two weekends and a full week in early December 2026, in partnership with another non-profit. The garden space provides an intimate, iconic setting — and the partnership ensures this market is rooted in the city's history, not imported from somewhere else. The goal is to create something that visitors plan trips around and residents look forward to every year.
