Where to Find Winter Holiday Markets in Northeastern Ontario

Across our region, there are many winter farmers' markets and holiday-themed markets that are sure to get you into the Christmas spirit. Discover where you can buy locally grown food and handmade art that captures Northeastern Ontario.

When it comes to the holiday season, there are people who have their Christmas shopping done early, and then there are those who leave it to the last minute and have to run all over town on the days leading up to Christmas.

If you are visiting Northeastern Ontario during any of these dates, we highly recommend that you stop into one of these markets, because we promise that you will find a unique and special gift that highlights the North.
