Herndon WinterMarkt

About the Event

Mixing Old and New Family Traditions to Make The Holidays Especially Bright

The Herndon WinterMarkt is bringing the old world charm of Christmas in Europe to community-oriented Herndon, Virginia. The holiday market tradition stretches back to Saxony, Germany during the middle ages. Over the centuries, the joys of the traditional Christmas markets spread from town to town, and around the world! These markets feature a delightful blend of holiday food, drinks, gifts, and decorations and have become well-known for their hand-crafted Christmas decorations, wood-working, artwork, and textiles. Today, millions of people enjoy Europe’s Christmas markets each year.

Our market is focused on showcasing the diversity of our community and the surrounding DC Metro area, in our lovely historic town. We are family-focused with events, entertainment and items for all members of the household while bringing the charm of this European tradition to Herndon. It is an additional way to involve our neighbors, civic organizations, and businesses in Herndon’s holiday traditions and we are grateful for everyone’s participation and support.

We want to hear from you if you have an event to share or updates to this event.
