According to centuries-old tradition, many German towns host Christmas Markets in December; each one is unique, featuring local artisans and festive regional refreshments. Residents take the opportunity to enjoy each other’s company, sample local delicacies, shop for gifts, and share holiday cheer. The Seattle Christmas Market aspires to bring this festive Old-World tradition to Seattle. Our Market combines colorful décor, authentic gifts, enticing food and drinks, and family entertainment, creating the perfect atmosphere for celebrating the Season.

We are thrilled to announce that in 2024, we will be featuring even more artisan vendors. With over 80+ huts, we are bigger, better, and brighter than ever before.

Join in the festive fun with live music and holiday entertainers lighting up the stage all Season long!

From the second-story Flying Stage atop the Christmas Pyramid, talented singers will fill the market every day!

There’s no better way to get into the holiday spirit than with the sounds of the season! Enjoy timeless Christmas classics alongside fresh takes on beloved holiday melodies.

The two come together with Sidecar, truly for the fun of it.

Front woman, Annie, performs with SRO, 45th Street Brass, is set to release her first solo album in 2020, and has recently recorded or performed with The Dip, Courtney Marie Andrews and many other local and national favorites.
