Farmers Market

Dec. 5, 2025 - Dec. 5, 2025

The Annual Historic Manassas Holiday Market takes place on Friday, December 5th and will be a smaller market then in years past. The market will take place in the Train Station lot from 4:00 - 8:00 pm. Also known as the Tree Lighting, this Santa Lights Manassas event on the first Friday in December is held the evening before the annual Christmas Parade on Saturday. This annual event has been a Manassas tradition for over 30 years! Holiday musical performances kick off the event followed by Santa and Mrs. Claus arriving by train shortly after 6 p.m. After the tree lighting, join Santa and Mrs. Claus as they greet children and listen to their holiday wishes at the nearby Santa Tent.


Jan. 17, 2026 - March 21, 2026

Established in 1987 with just four vendors, the Historic Manassas Farmers Market has evolved into one of the state's largest outdoor markets.  Recognized as the 2023 Best Farmers Market in Prince William County by InsideNova.com and hailed as the Best Farmers Market in Northern Virginia by Virginia Living magazine. We prioritize local farms and nurseries, food producers, bakeries, artists and artisans, and other local entrepreneurs. The Market  participates in SNAP, Virginia Fresh Match and Senior Market Nutrition Program (S/FMNP) food access programs. The Historic Manassas Farmers Market proudly serves as a small business incubator for many vendors.

 Join us for our Annual 2026  Historic Manassas Winter Market Every Saturday, beginning January 17 to March 21 from 10am to 2pm at the Historic "Water Tower" lot located at 9116 Prince William Street.
