Dunbar Holiday Craft Market
Back for its 42nd edition in 2026, one of Vancouver's biggest and best holiday markets returns for the festive season. Arrive early to give yourself plenty of perusing time and you'll find a tinsel-tastic cavalcade of more than 140 local vendor stands, fully focused on handmade artisan arts and crafts. It's the perfect place to discover unique, one-of-a-kind gift ideas as well as cool Christmas decor and much more. There's always a warm, family-friendly vibe at this popular annual holiday happening, complete with live music, tasty treats and even a glittering tree-lighting ceremony (at 4pm). We also recommend booking your tickets in advance to avoid the regular-entry line-ups.
When is it? November 21 (10am to 5pm), 2026
Where is it? Dunbar Community Centre, 4747 Dunbar Street, Vancouver
Admission: Tickets $5 in advance; $7 on the door
