For the third year in a row, Snowport will transform the Seaport neighborhood into a winter wonderland, and The Holiday Market at Snowport will enhance the festive experience as it celebrates a diverse mix of original concepts from local entrepreneurs and chefs. Expect to find holiday ornaments and trimmings, jewelry, homeware, apparel and accessories, children’s games and toys, kitchen and garden items, prints and stationary, packaged artisanal food products, and more. The market will run from November 19, 2021 through January 2nd, 2022 and will be located at 88 Seaport Boulevard, one of the city’s most popular shopping destinations.

“From The Current to Black Owned Bos. to our seasonal farmers markets, we have seen how our markets have drawn people from across the city and given local small businesses an opportunity to thrive. The Holiday Market at Snowport will be our newest retail experience and our largest outdoor market yet. The Holiday Market is inspired by the traditions and charms of European holiday markets, while being wholly unique to Boston and supporting local retail and food entrepreneurs,” says Yanni Tsipis, Senior Vice President, Development at WS Development.

“We are thrilled to bring such a joyful event to Boston this winter! Holiday Markets are such a rich cultural tradition, a hub for local communities and a valuable business opportunity for the hundreds of small businesses showcasing their unique wares,” says Julie Feltman and Tiziana Indelicato, executive producers and co-founders of The Makers Show.

More details about Snowport and The Holiday Market will be announced later this year.
