The holiday season has begun, and to mark this annual shopping tradition, Western Canada’s largest craft market is coming back to downtown Vancouver!
A 麻豆传媒映画tradition since 1972, the returns to the 麻豆传媒映画Convention Centre West from November 10 to 14. This shopping event is a premier showcase of the very best in Canadian craft, art, and design, featuring traditional, contemporary, one-of-a-kind, and production works from over 200 artisans from coast-to-coast.
As Vancouver’s biggest Christmas market, Circle Craft gives shoppers the chance to browse, buy, and gift an incredible assortment of Canadian handmade goods, including fashion accessories, fine jewellery, home and garden décor, woodcraft, ceramics, sculptures, natural body care, fashion, gourmet foods, and more.
You won’t find these one-of-a-kind items anywhere at the mall or on Amazon. With the perfect present for every person on your holiday shopping list, the market will be your one-stop holiday shop!
Circle Craft’s market vendors are selected by a jury based on their talents and diversity and come from a wide variety of disciplines and backgrounds across Canada. Check out a few of the highlights of this year’s line-up of participating artists and makers:
