After being cancelled last year amid the pandemic, The Ottawa Christmas Market returns this year for its second edition bigger, sparklier, and better than ever!

The month-long festivities, taking place at the Casino Lac-Leamy Plaza at Lansdowne Park and kicking off tonight, is a European-style market and will feature over 35 different food, gift, and art vendors, 15 nights of live music, various workshops, a silent disco and, most notably, the highly anticipated tree lighting.

There will be so much to see and do–so drop by and grab some mulled wine at Blitzen’s Bar or visit the man in red himself with the kids in Santa’s Village. Also, don’t miss the big tree lighting TONIGHT, November 26th at 6 p.m., right outside the entrance of Aberdeen Pavilion.
