Local gift giving is better!
Find us indoors for two full weekends in December at the Chattanooga Convention Center. Our Holiday Market features 200+ local food vendors, artists and crafters offering unique gifts and festive preparations – everything you’ll need for the holiday season!
Shoppers will be able to find one-of-a-kind pottery, custom pieces of art, handcrafted jewelry, local foods, natural bath and body products, locally designed and made apparel, wood furniture, and so much more. Ask vendors about commissioned pieces for that special touch.
Chattanooga Holiday Market has become a shopping tradition with festive daily entertainment for the whole family: live music and cooking exhibits are scheduled throughout the market series. Hot cocoa, warm lunch and spirits are also available to make the shopping occasion a special one.

Vendor Information
Holiday Market has been a sold-out event for as long as we can remember, with average daily vendor sales of over $160k reported in 2023 ($1m total vendor sales for the series). We currently have space available for new vendors, but capacity will run out as the calendar nears. All participants must satisfy our producer-only requirements — artisans and local entrepreneurs only, buy/sell retailers are not a proper fit for this festival.
Vendor Fees
Holiday Market is a prepaid (advance registration) event; no walk-ups are permitted.
- 2024 Single Booth, full event: $345 + 10% sales commission
- 2024 Double Booth, full event: $690 + 10% sales commission
Electricity is $50 in advance or $75 if requested the day of the event.
Upon registration you will be given the option to either pay your fees in full, or to pay a deposit and setup a payment plan.
Daily Sales Commission: you will be given two envelopes: one for Saturday and one for Sunday. Please turn in your envelope with the 10% commission at the end of each day.
