About

Based on the positive outlook for a safe, healthy & happy holiday season, plans have been finalized for the return of our traditional Downtown Boston Holiday Market!

This year’s market will be located in the heart of Downtown, at 32 Summer Street [101 Arch Street], in the former Pret A Manger restaurant space. The BID area is currently averaging up to 100,000 pedestrians per day—a volume that we anticipate will increase steadily as the holiday season approaches. The market will open Friday, November 26th, and will run through New Year’s Eve (December 31st). The hours of operation will be Mondays-Saturdays, 11 am-7 pm, and Sundays, 11 am-5 pm.

All artwork, crafts and food offerings must be original and handmade by you or your studio or enterprise. No mass produced or imported goods are allowed. Participating vendors will be curated by the BID staff.

The location will be festively lit and decorated with ample signage. Minimal electrical power will be available for booth lighting. The number of artists in each media category will be limited. Each vendor will have an approximate 8’ wide x 8’ deep space to set up a booth. The market accommodates up to 15 booths each period.

The space cost covers the facility, security, interior lighting, graphics, web listings, social media, marketing, and promotions. The Downtown Crossing area will include extensive signage promoting the Holiday Market. In addition, The BID will advertise in local papers and employ social media to promote the Holiday Market.
