We've listened to our vendors

Taking part in a three-day market is a real investment, especially in an event's first year. Following vendor feedback, we've reduced our full-weekend booth fees to $475 for an 8x7 space and $525 for an 8x8 space, including HST.

These rates apply to new and existing vendors. If you've already paid in full, we'll refund the difference. If you've paid a deposit, we'll adjust your remaining balance and contact you directly with the updated details.

Meet Halifax's holiday shoppers
in one weekend.

Three days, nine ticketed sessions, and a crowd shopping for the whole family, with an on-site lounge designed to keep people browsing longer. Sponsorship gets your brand in front of all of it.

Good questions.
Honest answers.

What does my ticket include?
Your $7 adult ticket includes access to our full vendor lineup, a printed vendor map at entry, and the on-site lounge area. Kids are always free.
How does timed entry work?
Each ticket covers a 3-hour session: 9am–12pm, 1pm–4pm, or 5pm–8pm. You choose your window when you buy. Three hours is more than enough time to browse the market and grab a drink. We cap each timeslot well below capacity, so the crowd stays comfortable and there's always room to shop.
Is there parking?
Yes. Pavilion 22 on the Halifax Waterfront has ample parking right on-site. No stress.
Is the event accessible?
Yes. The layout is designed with wide aisles, clear turning radiuses for wheelchairs and strollers, and clutter-free pathways throughout.
How are vendors selected?
We review applications for product quality, originality, and category fit. Our first year is intentionally limited, with careful attention to variety and limited overlap between similar products. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.
Do you offer booths for charities or nonprofits?
Yes. We set aside a limited number of complimentary booths for local charities and nonprofit organizations doing meaningful community work. If this is you, email us at [email protected] with a bit about your organization and we'll follow up.
How much does a vendor booth cost?
An 8x7 booth is $475 and an 8x8 booth is $525 for the full three-day market. Both prices include HST.
Do the new prices apply if I've already booked?
Yes. The revised prices apply to existing and new vendors. Fully paid vendors will receive a refund of the difference, and vendors who have paid a deposit will receive an adjusted remaining balance. If you previously secured a lower rate, you keep it. We'll contact affected vendors directly.
Can I bring my kids?
Of course! Children are always free. We're also hoping to bring in a Meet Santa experience this year, so keep an eye on our socials closer to the date.
Is there food and drink at the event?
Yes. We have an on-site lounge with warm drinks, hot chocolate, and a place to sit and rest.
Where do you recommend staying if I'm coming from out of town?
We recommend the Westin Nova Scotia, just steps from Pavilion 22 and a great home base for the weekend. It's right on the Halifax waterfront, close to good restaurants and the boardwalk.
Yes. Both addresses reach the same inbox and the same team, so use whichever is easiest for you. You'll always hear back from us at [email protected].
