The Lowell Yuletide Market is the latest new event from a DIY Lowell Project Team. Planned for JFK Plaza in downtown Lowell, it will bring together regional vendors selling unique goods, entertainment by local performers, hot chocolate, cozy lighting, and more. It will be the place not just for last-minute gifts, but for sharing holiday spirit, bringing celebratory light to the shortest days of the year.
The market is planned for the same weekend as City of Lights, so get ready!
Saturday, Nov 30 Noon – 8 pm
Sunday, Dec 1 Noon – 4 pm
More information will be shared as it is developed, including fun activities and more. If you’re interested in being a vendor, please scroll down.
